Awards
The Society awards a gold medal, the Pitman Medal, at most once annually, in recognition of outstanding achievement in, and contribution to, the discipline of Statistics. Honorary Life Membership honours outstanding contribution to the profession and the Society, while a Society Service Award may be awarded to a Society member in recognition of sustained and significant service to the Society.
The E.J. Pitman Prize is awarded for the most outstanding talk by a "young statistician" at an Australian Statistical Conference.
The Society is also consulted about medals of the Australian Academy of Science – the Moran Medal and the Hannan Medal. Both these medals honour Australian statisticans who made outstanding contributions to the discipline, the profession and the Society.
