In an effort to recognize outstanding contributions in the field, the organization is again asking for nominations from our network of professionals and participating organizations for the following:
 
1.  Barry Semple Lifelong Learning Leadership Award
This award is for an outstanding individual or group demonstrating responsibility, influence, courage, motivation, inspiration, direction, or guidance to make an outstanding contribution to lifelong learning through research, program design and development, publications, effective and innovative use of funds, service to the profession, etc.
 
2.  Teacher of the Year Award
This award is presented to an adult educator who has demonstrated professionalism and exemplary performance teaching adults in adult basic skills, ESOL, high school completion or developmental education classes.

The New Jersey Association for Lifelong Learning (NJALL) is holding its tenth annual adult learner writing contest. This year we will award cash prizes in six categories - fiction, non- fiction, memoir, poetry, photography and art. Several winners will be invited to read their work as part of the annual NJALL Conference in May 2024. All of the winners and selected other submissions will be published in a free magazine that will be available from our website in the summer of 2024. Winners will receive printed copies of the magazine, award certificates and prize checks.
