Celebrate your achievements with family and friends at the Student Awards Ceremony 2017

Our annual Awards Ceremony will be held Friday 17^th March 2017. Every year our students amaze with the commitment and enthusiasm they give to their studies and this is the perfect opportunity to celebrate their successes and share a great evening together.

The evening begins with a cheese and wine reception allowing students to mingle with tutors, fellow students, family and friends. A photographer is also on hand to capture the evening including when students receive their certificates. The ceremony will last approximately one hour.
