We’re excited to announce that nominations are now open for the 2026 NAGDCA – Art Caple President’s Award, recognizing exceptional public sector defined contribution plans that have demonstrated visionary leadership and a commitment to improving participant outcomes.
Two outstanding plans are awarded annually – one with total assets under management (AUM) of $500 million or more and one with AUM below this threshold, ensuring that plans of different sizes are recognized for their commitment to participant-focused retirement planning.
Each winning plan will receive:
- Recognition during the 2026 NAGDCA Annual Conference
- One complimentary registration for the 2027 Annual Conference in San Antonio
Plans must be NAGDCA members and demonstrate a strategic initiative that measurably enhances participant outcomes—such as retirement readiness, financial literacy, or investment education.
