The Engineers Australia Excellence Awards showcase individual contributions to the growth and wellbeing of the industry, excellence in significant projects, and innovative practices in engineering. Participation in our Awards provides nominees with recognition and opportunities to showcase achievements locally and nationally.
We are launching our 2023 Awards Program with a One-EA approach following a review conducted last year.
