Celebrating facilitators who deliver exceptional training
The UK’s only awards dedicated to celebrating the excellence of facilitators and trainers.
We recognise facilitators who are making a real impact on the industry and the lives of those they work with.
Training is often undervalued and seen as a tick box exercise, but we know that the right facilitator can deliver training that can be transformational to teams, organisations, even lives!
Our aim is to raise the profile of exceptional facilitators and give them the national recognition they deserve.
Apply or nominate from our ten categories, including; ‘Impactful Online Training’, ‘Equity Award’, and ‘Inspirational Facilitator’.
