Celebrating our Champions of the Trade - 2009
Every year we celebrate the achievements of our apprentices and trainees with a gala awards ceremony. From the hundreds currently employed, the best of the best are selected and named Apprentice/Trainee of the Year. In addition we honour our Host Employers and offer achievement awards at various levels.
Winners are nominated either by themselves, their host or an Acclaim Field Representative. They are people who stand out from the crowd through their work practices, skills and attitude to training.
The 2009 the Jubilee Awards Ceremony was held at the Caloundra Function Centre on 30th October.
It was a great success and congratulations to all the 107 apprentice, trainee and host employer nominees. There were 7 Major awards winners, 6 Host Employer outstanding achievement awards and 17 Apprentice and Trainees outstanding achievement awards.
