All submissions for the awards, which take place next January, must be in by 12noon on Monday, 5 September.
There is a wide selection of categories in this year’s awards, which are held to celebrate excellence in midwifery.
There are awards for excellence in partnership working and in midwifery education, promoting normal birth and innovation.
Cathy Warwick, RCM general secretary, said: ‘With the deadline fast approaching, I’d encourage anyone who would like to be considered for the 2012 awards to apply as soon as possible.
‘There are a wide range of categories and this is a great chance to recognise and celebrate the incredible job that midwives do.’
The awards are open to all RCM members and you can apply for more than one category.
A shortlisted will be drawn up and announced in September this year (2011), after which finalists will be invited to an interview with a panel of RCM staff.
The awards lunch will be held on 25 January 2012, at the Grand Connaught Rooms in Covent Garden, London.
The event will take place 12.30pm-4pm and includes a drinks reception and lunch.
Tickets can now be booked and cost £89+vat for RCM members or £150+vat for non-members.
All midwives shortlisted for awards will receive one complimentary ticket and group booking discounts are available.
