Excellence Awards

Open for nominations.

There are almost 2000 people around New Zealand who have ESITO training agreements. Each year the most outstanding of these trainees are celebrated at the ESITO Excellence Awards. The awards also celebrate those who have made a significant contribution to the electricity supply industry through their enthusiasm and commitment to industry training.

Nominating your trainees shows them you believe they are among the best, and that's a great motivator. The trainees who are fortunate enough to win value the recognition it gives them. Their companies also get to enjoy the spotlight.

Nominations are judged by a panel of five judges drawn from the electricity supply industry and education sector.

Finalists will receive complimentary tickets to the awards dinner. Their travel and accommodation expenses will also be covered. Award winners will receive a $500 cash prize and certificate.
