Get ready to share your innovations

The 2025 CU Innovation & Efficiency Awards Program will open on February 1, 2025.

Get recognized for improving CU business processes 

CU employees have good ideas that they put into practice every day, saving the University time, money, and hassles. The CU Innovation & Efficiency (CU I&E) Awards Program is designed to recognize these practices.

Tell us how you’ve re-engineered operations, enhanced communication, built employee engagement, improved customer service, or otherwise made CU work better. You can inspire other employees to take a new look at their own procedures. You may even win a cash prize.

We encourage all employees to check out the excellent projects shared with previous years' award programs.
