2025 SOAR Enrollment Now Open

By Simon Cook posted 01-09-2025 11:36 AM

  
Enrollment for APGA’s System Operational Achievement Recognition (SOAR) program is now open through March 7! Operating a safe and efficient distribution system is at the core of every APGA member's mission. Since 2014, over 75 systems have already been recognized. Will your system join them this year?
 
Enroll for SOAR here. Within 24 hours of your enrollment in SOAR, you will be emailed access to the 2025 SOAR application to describe your system's programs, policies, procedures, and accomplishments in four areas: Employee Safety, System Improvement, System Integrity, and Workforce Development. There is a $250 non-refundable fee to apply for SOAR. This fee is used for SOAR Program-related activities and materials. SOAR applications will be reviewed by a panel of experts from the APGA Operations and Safety Committee. All systems that meet the criteria for a Bronze, Silver, or Gold award will be recognized at the 2025 APGA Annual Conference in Coeur d'Alene, ID.
 
The SOAR Task Group held a webinar on Wednesday, February 5, at 1 p.m. ET to answer questions on the application process. View Recording (Members Only).
