MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The 15^th Annual International Compliance & Ethics Awards will be presented to recipients at the 2019 Compliance & Ethics Institute (CEI). Hosted by the Society of Corporate Compliance and Ethics (SCCE), this year's CEI is held September 15-18 in National Harbor, MD.

Since first presented in 2005, the International Compliance & Ethics Awards have been bestowed on colleagues and peers for their tireless efforts in furthering the compliance and ethics profession. The awards recognize those who have made a significant contribution to this growing field. Representatives from SCCE and the Health Care Compliance Association (HCCA) select the award recipients.

"Each year these awards help us to honor those who make significant contributions to the compliance and ethics profession." said Gerry Zack, CEO of SCCE & HCCA.
