EUROCAE Awards

Celebrating Excellence: The Annual EUROCAE Awards

Every year the nominations for the different Awards come from within the Working Groups, where the work is done, and who better to identify those members worthy of an Award than the Working Group members?

More than 5000 participants from about 500 member organisations are registered with EUROCAE. Each one of them is a valuable member of a community of aviation experts dedicated to writing standards with the sole purpose of making aviation safe and efficient.

During our Symposium we want to take this opportunity to recognise the exceptional individuals who went above and beyond their duties in the past year. These experts assumed responsibilities and worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcome. It is these extraordinary members that EUROCAE recognized with the Awards presented each year.

The Selection Committee represented the EUROCAE Governance by being composed of a member of the Council, the Technical Advisory Committee, and the Secretariat. For the Global Harmonization Award, a representative from RTCA joined the Selection Committee.
