The awards are given annually, with the first presentations made at ISTFA 2017. Nominate a worthy colleague today! EDFAS Lifetime Achievement Award The EDFAS Lifetime Achievement Award was estab- lished by the EDFAS Board of Directors to recognize lead- ers in the EDFAS community who have devoted their time, knowledge, and abilities toward the advancement of the electronic device failure analysis industry.
