The National Association of Women in Construction (NAWIC) NSW Chapter 2013 Awards for Excellence are now accepting nominations.

The annual awards program aims to celebrate the achievements of women working in the construction industry.

The awards were officially launched by Angela Ferguson, NAWIC NSW President, at an event hosted by Justin Schwarz, owner of Quorra Jewellery, at the showroom in Sydney’s CBD.

“The Awards for Excellence is the annual event most anticipated by our members. The Awards for Excellence are an important opportunity for women in all stages of their construction careers to be acknowledged,” Ms Ferguson said.

Nominees for the awards represent a broad range of construction fields including engineers, architects, interior designers, project managers, lawyers, developers and more.
