Admin Awards
The Admin Awards is the Administrative Profession's highest honor and the first and only public recognition program of its kind in the country that focuses specifically on recognizing and rewarding the achievements, dedication and importance of Administrative Professionals.
​
The Admin Awards offers nine distinct award categories, including the program’s most prestigious award, The Colleen Barrett Award for Administrative Excellence which elevates the professional who embodies the “spirit” and proficiency of nationally renowned (former) secretary, Colleen Barrett, President Emeritus of Southwest Airlines.

While the program is a competition among Admins nominated by their superiors and coworkers, the Admin Awards is, at its core, a celebration where all who attend are treated to a special evening packed full of excellent food, significant prizes, entertainment and fun.
From the creators of the Admin Awards, Beacon is a platform focused on uniting and empowering progressive Administrative Professionals through community, elevated learning and peer collaboration so you can amplify your strategic value to your organizations.
