The Advisory Committee on Clinical Excellence Awards (ACCEA) has announced that the 2020-21 round will open on Monday 7th December 2020.
The closing date for final submission of applications to the ACCEA via their on-line application system is 5pm on Thursday 18 March 2021.
This deadline applies to applications for both new awards and renewals of current awards and allows 14 weeks for all stages of the process to be completed, which is an extension from the usual 8 weeks.
ACCEA will accept applications for new national awards from consultants working for the NHS in England and Wales and for renewed awards from those due to renew their award in 2021. This includes those who were due to renew in 2020 and whose awards were extended by one year.
Award holders will need to submit a renewal application if:
