Peer Awards

Originating from the Flight Projects Directorate's Diversity Council, the FPD Peer Awards are morale boosters that say my coworkers value me and my work. It is a process that recognizes that we are all peers; a Code 400 value added process for identifying nominees for Agency and Center Awards. The FPD Peer Awards promotes and recognizes innovation, teamwork, respect, and diligence . It recognizes all who contribute to the success of the Directorate (both Code 400 and matrixed personnel) as well as provides illumination of the breadth and depth of the Directorate's Mission and its People. It gives us the opportunity to say--Thank You!
