Sub title: Have you made your nomination for the 2015 Adult Learners’ Week (ALW) Awards yet?
With three weeks until the closing date of 5pm 17 December 2014, there’s still time to nominate inspirational adult learners, employers, projects, and, tutors.
ALW want to hear the very best stories about adults of every background, age and stage so get in touch with RKEO and we can support your nomination!
Every year, Adult Learners’ Week discovers some fantastic stories from truly inspirational award winners who have experienced life-changing benefits from learning.
Last year they received more than 190 nominations in the South West but very few from BU.
Participating in Adult Learners’ Week is a great way to:
- celebrate the successes of remarkable learners;
- enhance the profile of your organisation;
- showcase learning programmes of which you are particularly proud;
- highlight the positive effects of learning on people’s health, confidence and future prospects; and
- become recognised as an excellent provider of learning opportunities.
Nomination Categories:
Individuals who have made a significant difference to their lives through learning, and who would inspire others to do the same.
Tutors who are passionate and dedicated to learning, and make invaluable contributions to the lives of adult learners from all walks of life.
Projects that have made a positive difference to learners’ development and helped people change their lives for the better.
Employers that invest in outstanding staff training, and use learning to develop the skills of their workforce to improve productivity, raise morale and enhance their business performance.
For further information please come to the ALW nomination workshop on Monday 1st December at 2pm in P401 or contact Naomi Kay nkay@bournemouth.ac.uk
