AIRAH WA, in conjunction with industry, established the “B K James Award” as a memorial to James for his tireless efforts in apprentice training. It is presented annually at the WA Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Awards Night, a joint industry event by AMCA, AIRAH, South Metro TAFE, and the Alan Robert Memorial Fund.
