King Abdullah II Award for Excellence for Business Associations
Mark of "Best Practice"

In May 2006, the King Abdullah II Center for Excellence launched an award for business associations referred to as the “King Abdullah II Award for Excellence” for Business Associations. The Award consists of three stages: The first stage, which was launched at the same event, is the Mark of “Best Practice”, the second is the “Seal of Excellence” and the last stage, which is the highest level of recognition for business associations in Jordan, is the “King Abdullah II Award for Excellence”.

Objectives Of The Mark Of "Best Practice"

The objectives of the Mark of “Best Practice” serve as a means of setting standards for business associations based on international best practices. The Mark provides a strong incentive for business associations to continually improve to serve their members, as well as the public and private sectors.

Mark of “Best Practice” for business associations has been created in response to the business associations' increasingly important role in the growth of Jordan’s economy, especially with respect to competitiveness, exports, and investment. Much of the private sector’s coordinated efforts in promoting Jordan’s economy are due to the role of business associations, which have emerged as important advocates for market-friendly reforms to accelerate private sector-led economic growth. At the same time, business associations are delivering valuable business development services to their members, including management training and networking that enhance those members' marketing abilities, and consequently contribute positively to the Jordanian economy.
