WASHINGTON, May 10, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) announced this week the winners of the 2021 Gold Circle Awards, which honor associations and non-profit organizations demonstrating excellence, innovation, and achievement in marketing, membership, and communications programs. The National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM®) is proud to accept the ASAE Gold Circle award for the Member/Volunteer Engagement Campaign category for the NCCAOM Diplomate COVID-19 Resources and Outreach.

This year's ASAE Gold Circle competition drew a record-breaking 300 submissions across 15 categories and involved more than 100 judges evaluating this year's entries.

"It is such an honor to have received the prestigious ASAE Gold Circle Award for the Member/Volunteer Engagement category," said Mina Larson, NCCAOM CEO. "Our COVID-19 Resources and Outreach Campaign was a culmination of the extensive work and partnership of the NCCAOM staff and volunteers and the American Society of Acupuncturists to empower and inform the acupuncture medicine community with resources, assistance and valuable information during an unprecedented global pandemic."

"We are thrilled to have received so many submissions. We had no idea what to expect for this GCA cycle, but association professionals turned challenges into opportunities and the work did not stop in 2020," said Jill Treby, senior director of membership and marketing at the Association for Psychological Science and chair of ASAE's 2020 Gold Circle Awards Committee.

All 2021 Gold Circle Award winners will be recognized in a virtual ceremony on June 4 at 3:45 PM ET at the conclusion of ASAE's 2021 Marketing, Membership & Communications Conference (MMCC).
