At EUROCAE, aviation standardisation is driven by the dedication, expertise and commitment of our volunteer community. More than 5,000 professionals contribute their time and knowledge to our Working Groups, helping shape the standards that support the future of aviation.
The EUROCAE Awards celebrate these individuals and recognise the impact they make on our community.
As members of our Working Groups, you are ideally placed to identify colleagues whose contributions deserve recognition. We invite you to nominate the experts who have made a real difference to your Working Group and to EUROCAE.
