Honouring Excellence. Inspiring the Future.

 

At the 2025 RIA Conference & Trade Show, we were thrilled to announce the winners of this year’s RIA Education Scholarship.


This scholarship supports restoration field technicians from RIA Inc. Member businesses with 1-3 years of industry experience, helping them expand their knowledge and skills. By funding further education and training, it aims to advance careers, lift industry standards, and strengthen the restoration profession across Australasia.


Through this program, RIA invests in the future of the industry; empowering emerging professionals, fostering excellence, and preparing the next generation of restoration leaders to make a lasting impact.


In 2025, we proudly awarded two recipients a $2,500 credit each to enrol in courses offered by the RIA or the IICRC, providing valuable opportunities to further their professional development.


Congratulations to our winners; Martin & Mathew - we’re excited to see your continued success in the industry.


Our heartfelt thanks to WA Flood and Fire, this year’s sponsor, for their valued contribution in empowering these two recipients to further their professional development.
