Awards


summit awards®

 

The recipients of Summit Awards® are chosen from nominees solicited from the members of the Association and other groups, organizations and individuals. APEGA’s Honours and Awards Committee is then charged with reviewing the nominations and recommending recipients to the Association’s Council for final consideration and approval.

By recognizing excellence in its members and acknowledging the contributions of individuals in our community, the Association also raises the public’s awareness of the engineering and geoscience professions.

The Association’s primary awards are presented annually by the President at the Summit Awards® Gala during the Annual Conference.
