Frank Kilya was recognised as the 2017 Trade Test Candidate of the Year and received his award during the 2017 ‘Apprenticeship and Trade Test Candidate of the Year Awards’ celebrations.  

The National Apprenticeship and Trade Testing Board (NATTB) Secretariat staged the awards ceremony on 30 November 2017, at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Port Moresby.

A Probationary Tradesperson, Frank had nothing more to say but appreciation to all that contributed to his win.
