The National Association of Professional Insurance Agents said it is seeking nominations for three national awards that will honor agents and service representatives who exhibit distinction in their field.

The Alexandria, Va.-based association is accepting nominees for the association's Professional Agent of the Year Award, the PIA National Customer Service Representative of the Year Award and the PIA National Young Insurance Professional of the Year Award.

The PIA National Professional Agent of the Year Award goes annually to one outstanding professional insurance agent who is a member of PIA. Nominations for this award are made by PIA state and regional affiliate associations.

The PIA National Customer Service Representative of the Year Award is given annually to an outstanding agency customer service representative who works for a PIA member insurance agency. Nominations for this award are made by PIA members.

The PIA National Young Insurance Professional of the Year Award is given to an outstanding employee, owner or principal of a PIA member agency who is under the age of 40 or a member of a PIA-affiliated Young Insurance Professionals association. Both PIA members as well as PIA state and regional affiliates may make nominations for this award.

All three awards will be presented during a luncheon April 4, 2009 in Arlington, Va., in conjunction with the 2009 PIA Federal Legislative Summit, National Board of Directors and committee meetings.

Nominations will be accepted until Jan. 30 and forms are available at www.pianet.com/awards.
