Learning awards
The Adult Learners' Week Awards recognise adults with remarkable learning journeys.
Nominating friends, family or colleagues for an Adult Learners' Week Award not only celebrates their achievements but recognises their inspirational commitment to learning and the positive affect this has had on their life.
The 2010 Adult Learners’ Week Award Winners have now been announced.
Nominations for the 2011 Awards will be open in October, register here for more information.
If you know someone whose learning has had life-changing results that inspire you, nominate them for an Adult Learners' Week Award. Winners often become powerful role models to inspire others to learn.
Individuals, families, groups and projects can be nominated, and for 2010, there were a series of special Award categories:
- the Digital Participation Award (sponsored by the BBC) celebrates learning where the use of new technology has been central;
- the Intergenerational Award (sponsored by the MLA) rewards learning across generations in the Museums, Libraries and Archives sector;
- the Foundation Degree Award (sponsored by FDF) recognises an outstanding adult learner on a foundation degree;
- the Power of Reading Award (sponsored by Booktrust) celebrates learning where reading or writing has inspired an outstanding learning journey; and
- the NOCN Outstanding Achievement Award (sponsored by the National Open College Network) will recognise outstanding learning on an OCN programme.
