Quick Facts

The Australia China Alumni Awards celebrates the success and achievements of selected Chinese alumni who have studied at Australian universities and Australian expatriates living in China. Over 700,000 Chinese students have studied in Australia since the early 1970s and this large alumni cohort plays an important role in many sectors across the Chinese economy and society and in enhancing the deep people to people relationships between Australia and China.

The Australia China Alumni Awards have been running for 16 years and are organized by the Australia China Alumni Association (ACAA), with support from our Patron, H.E. the Australian Ambassador to China.

We have celebrated more than 800 finalists including 144 winners and 28 Judges Commendation recipients over the past 15 years, including a number of high profile alumni from a range of business, government bodies, cultural and community organisations, and research institutions.

Over the past decade the Awards have been sponsored by a range of organisations such as TOEFL®, IELTS, Austrade, the Australian Embassy Beijing, AMET, CPA Australia, JJL, Telstra, Qantas, Study Queensland, Study NSW and IDP Education. The vast majority of Australian universities consistently nominate and support their alumni for these Awards. The Awards provide a premier opportunity to engage with Chinese (including Hong Kong) alumni of various ages from a range of sectors.

The Awards present an opportunity to raise your profile in Australia and China by sending your message to the extended ACAA network (currently 27,000+ members) and through other partners’ and stakeholders’ channels across Greater China and Australia. Partners will be acknowledged in all promotional materials and receive valuable exposure through our six month plus marketing campaign reaching our alumni and tertiary institutions, corporate and government partners.

Posts related to the Awards attracted on average 400,000 view every year. 300-400 attendees gather at Awards presentation events in 6 or more cities in Australia and China every year. You can find details in the 2023 Alumni Awards Report.
