Outstanding Alumni Awards

Check Out the Inspiring Stories of Our Alumni and Student Award Recipients

Some are accomplished professionals. Others are recent graduates. Each story is unique, and yet they are united by common themes: determination, leadership, a commitment to giving back to the NECC community, and to others.

Outstanding Alumni Award

The annual Outstanding Alumni Award recognizes an NECC graduate who has achieved career-related success, is active in the community, and/or has exemplified active support for the college’s efforts. Nominations are accepted on an annual basis and are reviewed by the NECC Alumni Board Awards Committee, with President Lane Glenn approving their recommendation. 

If you know of an outstanding alum or current graduating student, please nominate them for a future award.

We are no longer accepting nominations for 2023.

Outstanding Student Award

Nominations are accepted on an annual basis and are reviewed by the NECC Alumni Board Awards Committee, with President Lane Glenn approving their recommendation.
