TLISC awards recognise excellence in training and workforce development across six transport and logistics industry sectors.

The 2014 Transport and Logistics Industrial Skills Council awards for excellence are open for nominations until 3 February.

The awards recognise and celebrate excellence and outstanding contributions in training and workforce development across six transport and logistics industry sectors: road transport; logistics and warehousing; rail; aviation; maritime; and ports.

A new category, Trainee of the Year, has been introduced for 2014. It recognises trainees who have demonstrated hard work and outstanding achievements in the vocational education and training sector.

A finalist will be selected from each sector with the overall winner announced at an awards ceremony in Melbourne in April.
