Proposals Welcome for Deserving ISI Service Certificate Recipients

ISI Service Certificates are to be presented biennially at the ISI General Assembly to recognise particularly distinguished service to the ISI and its Sections. Any ISI member has the right to make nominations to the ISI Service Certificates Committee. 

The criteria for potential recipients include service over an extended period of time and in a variety of leadership roles (or exceptionally for distinguished service in one capacity for a truly abnormal length of time) including, but not limited to, official positions in the ISI, its Committees and Sections, editorial roles, organisation of the biennial conference or Section conferences and representing the ISI on external bodies. The award is intended to reflect services to the ISI itself rather than distinction in the field of statistics per se. 

The recipients must be members of the ISI at the time of the award but services rendered to any ISI Section before membership of the ISI is achieved may be taken into consideration in deciding to make the award. 

The number of awards shall not normally exceed five in any biennium. Members of the Executive and the Council of the ISI are not eligible for the award during their period of office. 

Recipients of the Adolphe Quetelet Medal are not eligible to receive an ISI Service Certificate. 

Proposals should be sent to the ISI Service Certificate Chairman:
