Ken Innes Memorial Award

Nominations are invited for the Ken Innes Memorial Award. 

Ken Innes was a widely respected industry leader in his field and a past chairman of the Mine Electrical Safety Association. After his passing in May 2014 and, in celebration of his life and many achievements, his family established the Ken Innes Memorial Award for an outstanding electrical apprentice.

The award is open to a current electrical apprentice, or a new tradesman that has completed their apprenticeship since the last conference. The nominee needs to be currently working in the Queensland mining industry and display excellence in safety, academic and trade fields.
