PLEA gives four types of awards.
The “PLEA Lifetime Achievement Award” is made infrequently to distinguished individuals who have made a consistent contribution to the PLEA objectives.
Annual or bi-annual awards are coordinated to coincide with the conferences and include: the “PLEA Award” conferred upon a regional figure or organization of international distinction; and the “PLEA Best Paper” and/or the “PLEA Best Poster” awards.
