Awards at UBC
The President’s Service Award for Excellence medal
UBC presents the President’s Service Awards for Excellence and other staff awards annually, to recognize staff members who demonstrate outstanding achievement and excellence within the UBC Community.
- President’s Service Award for Excellence (open to all UBC staff)
- UBC Vancouver President’s Staff Awards (open to staff at the Vancouver campus)
- UBC Okanagan Staff Awards of Excellence (open to staff at the Okanagan campus)
The President’s Service Award for Excellence (PSAE) was created in 1991 and has been awarded to 160 employees for their outstanding contributions to the University.
With the growth of our University over the years, as well as the addition of the Okanagan campus, the UBC Vancouver President’s Staff Awards and the UBC Okanagan Staff Awards of Excellence were created to celebrate a wider range of accomplishments.
UBC’s Focus on People framework highlights recognition as an important component of staff recruitment and retention at the University. We aim to recognize the personal achievements and contributions that staff make to UBC and to the vision and goals of the University.
UBC has many other award and recognition opportunities available for our faculty and staff. Visit the UBC Award Opportunities page for information on celebrating and recognizing outstanding contributions to the University.
