The Las Vegas Chapter has successfully achieved the Chapter Achievement Program’s SAPPHIRE award level in 2023! The program, referred to as CAP, requires each chapter to tally the different activities in which its members participate that promote the IIA. For example, achievement points may be earned for presentations given by Chapter members or for the number of participants that attend a sponsored or cosponsored IIA Chapter event. CAP is the IIA’s Business Score Card used to monitor and recognize the activities of the local chapters that promote the strategic objectives of the IIA.
Las Vegas SAPPHIRE status is a notable accomplishment. Only Chapters that attain a RUBY status for 5 consecutive years are recognized as a SAPPHIRE chapter. Throughout the year, the achievement program monitors and scores each chapter’s participation in the following three service categories:
- Service to Members
- Service to the Profession
- Chapter Administration
At the end of the year, CAP evaluates the success of each chapter’s efforts through the use of the following performance level classifications:
- BRONZE: 685 achievement credits
- SILVER: 1,060 achievement credits
- GOLD: 1,560 achievement credits
- PLATINUM: GOLD status achievement 10 consecutive years
- RUBY: 10 years of PLATINUM achievement
- SAPPHIRE: 5 years of RUBY achievement
- DIAMOND: 10 years of SAPPHIRE achievement
In order to continue our success and become the top scorer, compared to larger chapters in the United States, we need your assistance in ensuring that we continue to earn these CAP points.
If you have suggestions for chapter membership activities that will earn us CAP points, please contact Jennifer Brede at chapter122events@iiachaptercommunications.org.
If you have any questions regarding the Chapter Achievement Program, please contact Michelle Horvath at chapter122@iiachaptercommunications.org.
