The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) has opened nominations for three prestigious awards. The awards include the Cy Gantt, Founder’s (also known as the Ed York award), and the Keith Williams awards.

The Cy Gantt award is named in honor of the late Honorary Board of Directors member, Cy Gantt. This award is presented to individuals exemplifying outstanding long-term service to the inspection, cleaning, or restoration industries as a whole.

This prestigious award is given to individuals that have demonstrated exceptional dedication and contribution to the IICRC. Candidates must be volunteers, not paid staff or consultants, and are nominated by their peers in the industry.
