Organised by the Hong Kong Council for Testing and Certification (HKCTC) and funded by the Innovation and Technology Commission, the Testing and Certification Manpower Development Award Scheme 2025-26 is open for applications today (May 2) until July 31, 2025. Testing and certification (T&C) bodies and practitioners are welcome to apply.
      
     Launched in 2021 with favourable feedback from the local T&C industry, the Award Scheme has become a biennial signature event to encourage the T&C bodies to invest in talent training and development, while also commending those T&C practitioners who have striven for continuous learning and professional development, and/or contributed to service quality improvement.   
      
     The Award Scheme 2025-26 consists of two categories of awards, namely:
      
* Testing and Certification Manpower Development Corporate Award

• Platinum Award and Gold Award

 
* Excellent Testing and Certification Professional Award

• Senior Professional and Junior Professional

 
     Two independent Assessment Panels, comprising members of the HKCTC and stakeholders such as academia and public/industrial bodies, will be formed for the two categories of awards. The results of the Awards will be announced in the fourth quarter of 2025. All awardees will be invited to the award presentation ceremony and presented with a trophy together with an award certificate. The Corporate Awardees will also be permitted to display the logo for the Platinum Award or the Gold Award as appropriate on their websites and publicity materials.
      
     For details of the Award Scheme, please visit the HKCTC website (www.hkctc.gov.hk/mpaward).
