CIE-USA DFW Chapter

CIE to Kick-off 2010 Young Achiever Award Program

The CIE Young Achiever Award (YAA) is part of the CIE Youth Programs held each year. It is designed to encourage the young generation of the CIE community to achieve academic excellence, to participate in extracurricular activities and community services, and to develop leadership skills in the early stage of their life. The YAA program achieves these goals through special recognition of the students who have demonstrated high level of excellence in the above areas, through recommendations from the various sources with which we could evaluate their achievements. This particular recognition has proven to be very beneficial to the YAA recipients in their applications to colleges and universities, as well as a powerful credential for their careers down the road.
