The awards for the prize winners include a £3,000 personal award, and a further £12,000 for the school to be used over three years to further promote engineering within the school We intend for the prize winner to play a key role in determining how the funds will be spent

The criteria for selection include:

• A vision for technology and design (or other STEM subjects) education that could inspire and lead to a successful career in engineering
• The level of creativity shown in shaping the nominee’s work with young people
• The success the nominee has had in their interaction with young people, both in terms of numbers reached and the difference made in their lives The nominee’s contributions should be based on work conducted within the last five years, but sustained contributions over a longer period may also be considered

The nomination section should not exceed 600 words, and submissions that exceed that limit may be declined The selection process will be conducted by a panel of ERA Foundation board members, and it is crucial that the nomination accurately reflects the candidate’s qualifications to ensure fair evaluation by the panel

In addition to the written submission, candidates are encouraged to submit a short video of no more than 1 minute in length showing some of their work, with contributions from students, colleagues, or industry partners if appropriate

The ERA Foundation believe that this is a great opportunity to showcase and celebrate the work of educators who are making a significant impact in inspiring the next generation of engineers Please submit your nomination today, or share the competitions with friends and colleagues who you believe should be celebrated for their work
