Northeastern Illinois Chapter Past and Current President,
Congratulations on a great chapter year. The Northeastern Illinois Chapter has achieved Platinum level recognition for the 2025-2026 year. This recognition is based from the information your chapter submitted in the Chapter Operations Management Tool (COMT) of June 30, 2026 and reviewed by your Regional Vice President and Area Director.
ASSP chapters continue to provide an outstanding value. Your efforts benefited your chapter members and the safety profession as a whole. Your chapter’s achievement of this level of success is impressive and greatly appreciated by ASSP.
In continuing with our new recognition initiative community leaders shared, your entire leadership team will be included in the recognition for the 2025-2026 Platinum and Gold member communities. Banners of recognition will also be placed on your website.
Again, congratulations on your accomplishment, and thank you for your work in providing opportunities for ASSP members to become better safety professionals.
Sincerely,
The ASSP Membership & Communities Team
