The Jack Derrickson Award For Outstanding Course Leadership

Each year, one Institutes course leader is awarded the Jack F. Derrickson Award for Outstanding Course Leadership. This award is named in honor of Jack F. Derrickson, CPCU, who served as a course leader and grader of Institutes examinations for over 40 years.

These course leaders have met the highest Institutes standards relating to both numbers of classes led and the quality of educational outcomes. This prestigious award may be earned only once during a course leader's career. Honorees receive a cash award, a plaque, and a stipend toward attending the CPCU Society's Annual Meeting and the The Institutes' CPCU Conferment Ceremony to receive the award.

The Institutes are proud of the significant contribution that the following course leaders have made to risk management and insurance education.
