DDC Awards - National Safety Council

National Safety Council recognizes and celebrates those who have exemplified excellence in advancing progress on the road to zero deaths by delivering defensive driving programs.

At this time we invite Training Centers, Chapters and Instructors to recognize the outstanding efforts of the individual candidates that make our roads a safer place.

The International Advisory Committee determines award winners for each of the NSC Defensive Driving Courses. Winners are announced during the summer with the awards sent out prior to our 2022 Safety Congress & Expo. This global event is where The Instructor of the Year and the Resiliency Award winners will be presented.

Nominate Yourself or a Colleague for a Driver Safety Training Award

Deadline is May 31, 2022.
