Technician Awards

Technician Awards are for secondary school science technicians.

Awards Programme

We understand the importance of practical science to engage young people in the wonder of chemistry. Practical science is not possible without technicians whose expertise and skills help inspire new generations of chemists and scientists.

  • recognise ways to improve their department and/or team for the benefit of their students
  • understand the challenges and opportunities facing their sector and a vision of how they can contribute.
