2009 Honors & Awards Program 

ISA's annual Honors & Awards Gala, now in its 47th year, acknowledges the importance of recognizing talent, dedication, and advancement in the field of automation as a vital part of growth and development. Since the award program began, hundreds of dedicated automation professionals have earned a part of automation history by becoming a recipient of one of ISA's prestigious awards.

As a Society leader, your input is needed to help ISA continue to acknowledge the accomplishments of outstanding individuals. Nominate a colleague, an ISA Member, or a mentor for one of ISA's prestigious awards. With your help, we look forward to receiving a host of well-qualified nominations again this year.

Just by their nomination, you'll be recognizing them for a job well done. If they are selected, the whole automation community will join you in that recognition when the awards are presented during the 2009 ISA Honors & Awards Gala on 5 October 2009 in Houston, Texas, USA.
