The awards will be given at ISTFA 2025. Nominate a worthy colleague today! EDFAS LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD The EDFAS Lifetime Achievement Award was established by the EDFAS Board of Directors in 2015 to recognize leaders in the EDFAS community who have devoted their time, knowledge, and abilities to the advancement of the electronic device failure analysis industry. EDFAS PRESIDENT’S AWARD The EDFAS President’s Award shall recognize exceptional service to EDFAS and the electronic device failure analysis community. Examples of such service include, but are not limited to committee service, service on the Board of Directors, organization of conferences or symposia, development of education courses, student and general public outreach. While any member of EDFAS is expected to further the Society’s goals through service, this award shall recognize those who provided an exceptional amount of effort in their service to the Society. Nomination deadline for both awards is March 1.
