Each year the Pearcey Foundation makes awards to outstanding individuals. The awards and previous winners of each award are listed in subsections below. The awardees are selected by various state based and national committees. Nominations can be received at any time.

There are two main categories of awards:

Lifetime ICT achievement and contribution - Pearcey Medal and Pearcey Hall of Fame
