All individuals involved with Fire Investigations know Investigators that should be recognized for their investigative skills. It is a benefit for Fire Investigators to be recognized by their peers for their investigative skills. During the closing of the Annual Training Conference the OKIAAI Executive Board will present the annual award for Investigator of the Year. This award is presented each year at the annual conference. Any interested party may nominate a current OKIAAI member who best represents an Oklahoma Fire Investigator by meeting all the requirements. The nomination deadline is October 1 of each year.
