The IEPPV Service Award

The IEPPV Service Award is designed to recognize members for dedication to furthering the aims of the organization. The Award consists of the Service Medallion, which may be worn at all photographic functions, and the Service Award Certificate, which can be displayed prominently in studio or office. The Service Award is achieved by earning Service Merits for specific actions as detailed below, and is presented at the annual IEPPV Awards Banquet to any member(s) having completed the requirements for the Award in the preceding twelve months.
