The Association and Institutes Awards

The Association and Institutes Awards celebrate the most innovative individuals and organisations within Ireland’s association and institute community. Open to a wide range of member-based bodies, the awards recognise excellence in leadership, communication, member services and sector advancement. Entry is free, and successful applicants gain the opportunity to showcase notable achievements and be benchmarked against the highest standards in their field.

Submissions are assessed by a panel of expert judges through a transparent and rigorous process, ensuring fairness and credibility. Shortlisted entries and winners receive national exposure and acclaim, with the ceremony, offering a prestigious platform for networking and celebration among peers and industry leaders.

More than simply an awards ceremony, it acts as a catalyst for organisational growth and shared learning. It highlights best practices and strategic innovation across Ireland’s association landscape, helping to raise institutional standards, deepen member engagement and build stronger, purpose-driven communities.
