IIABSC was recently honored with its ninth consecutive IIABA Excellence in Education Diamond Award.

Known as the EIE Awards, they celebrate and recognize state associations who have made significant contributions to education for their members and the industry in the key areas of class offerings, continuing education, professionalism, designation offerings, industry collaboration, planning, marketing and resources. Diamond is the highest level of recognition. 

"IIABSC concentrates our time and energy on high-quality education offerings rather than jumping on the bandwagon of fast, cheap and easy," said IIABSC Vice President Becky McCormack. "Our programs make our members better at what they do, and therefore a better choice for their customers."
