New Leader-to-Leader Program Reward Items

ACHE affiliates who sponsor new Members and encourage current Members to earn the FACHE® credential are rewarded through the Leader-to-Leader Program. Points are awarded and can be redeemed for quality items featuring the ACHE logo and gift certificates. New reward items for 2010 are now available, including an umbrella, leather thermos, four-piece pen/pencil and letter opener set, men’s and women’s fleece jackets and a Waterford picture frame.

ACHE affiliates earn one point for each new Member sponsored or current Member who earns the FACHE credential. Points can be redeemed instantly–even just one–on ache.org/L2L. Here you can also view the reward items. Earned Leader-to-Leader points can be tracked in the My ACHE area of ache.org.
