The Avery Great Results Chapter and Division Achievement Awards Program provides great prizes and international recognition to chapters and a division that display excellence in specific areas of operations such as outstanding educational programs, promotion of professional certifications, and membership recruitment and retention. This program began in 1989 to recognize chapters and the division component was added in 2006. Each year Avery Dennison awards five cash prizes to chapters and one cash prize to a division. The prize money is to be used for the development of programs that focus on pertinent issues facing the administrative profession.

• One Division Prestige Award will be presented to the one winning division.
• One Prestige Award will be presented to the overall chapter winner with both chapter size categories combined.
• Two Distinction Awards will be presented to a chapter with less than 40 members and to a chapter with 40 or more members.
• Two honorable mention awards will be presented to a chapter with less than 40 members and to a chapter with 40 or more members.
