2007 Winners of the Allan Cross Award

Tony Haney of Central Illinois Chapter 158 is one of 25 ASIS International members, one from each of 25 Chapters, to receive the Allan J. Cross, CPP Award. The award pays the registration fee for 25 ASIS members to attend any one ASIS certification review course of their choice, throughout the year.

The award is made possible, in part, by the generosity of PPM 2000, Inc., a software firm offering incident management solutions. Cross was executive vice president of PPM until his death in 1996. He pointed to his Certified Protection Professional (CPP) status with pride, and PPM and the ASIS Foundation partnered to commemorate him in this way. Cross held memberships in the Police Chiefs Association of Southwest Pennsylvania; the Academy of Security Educators and Trainers; and ASIS.

Awardees may choose a CPP, PCI, or PSP review course - either in the classroom or online. Recipients must be members in good standing who were not previously awarded a Cross Award. Each chapter may submit one application, signed by the chapter chair.

Applications will be considered in the order in which they are received. Once 25 applications are received and validated, no applications will be accepted until the next year. Winning applicants will be selected without regard to race, age, gender, religion, political beliefs, employment status, or any other factors that constitute unfair or illegal discrimination.
