如要鼓勵傑出的職業表現以及實踐崇高的道德標準，一項重要且有效的方法就是給予表彰。這可以藉由頒業職業成就獎給名副其實的個人或組織來達成。無論是扶輪社員或非扶輪社員都可以成為受獎人；職業成就可以是重大的努力，或著簡單但很有創意的行動；也可以在例會上簡單進行，也可以隆重舉行，例如在宴會或公開的典禮中進行。

An important and effective way to encourage vocational excellence and the practice of high ethical standards is to recognize such activity. This can be done by bestowing vocational awards on deserving individuals or organizations. The awardees can be Rotarians or non-Rotarians; the accomplishment can be a major effort or a simple, thoughtful act; the ceremony can be an informal presentation at a club meeting or something more elaborate, such as a banquet or a public ceremony.
