The BU Festival of Learning has been short-listed for a Heist Award in the Business / Community Engagement category. The Heist Awards have evolved over the last 20 years to become the premier awards programme for marketing in the sector and exist to recognise and celebrate professionalism and innovation in education marketing.
The Business / Community Engagement category is for projects or campaigns to engage with the local community or businesses. Just to get short listed is a great achievement so thank you to everyone who has been involved with the Festival of Learning and who has made it a success. The awards event will take place on 10th July in Manchester. Fingers crossed we win!
The Festival of Learning 2014 takes place between 9-15 June. Find out about all the events on offer here: http://microsites.bournemouth.ac.uk/festival-of-learning/
