About NPA: Distinguished Fellows
The Networking Industry's International Network Professional Association (NPA) has recognized these elite professionals for special recognition as “Distinguished Fellows” due to their significant contributions to the IT industry and work as outstanding, prominent, and distinguished professionals in the networking industry sector. These professionals have been "uniquely" singled out for special distinction out of an estimated 50 million IT workers in business, government, education, and media in more than 100 countries. They are in the Global Hall of Fame for the industry. The networking industry is the largest and it is all-encompassing including the: internet, mobile computing, telecommunications, security, networking, business continuity/disaster recovery, interoperability, IT and corporate governance, privacy/identity, and software/web development. The association recognizes these special individuals as elite professionals through the special NPA distinguished “DISTINGUISHED FELLOWS” membership category.
So what does it mean to be a “Distinguished Fellow” member, what is their role, what type of people become a “Distinguished Fellow” member.
They were chosen based upon an outstanding and long sustained demonstration of top-ranking technical competence, exceptional professionalism, consummate integrity, demonstrated service, significant industry contribution, and noted leadership. They are the Global “Hall of Fame” of the Network Computing Industry and Profession. Once selected they joined the international college or membership group of Distinguished Fellows (ICDF) founded by the NPA. They can also serve on the NPA Distinguished Fellows Board if selected from the ICDF. Distinguished Fellows are strong advocates of the Networking Profession and Professionalism. And they promote sustained Service, Contribution and Leadership advocating Professionalism.
