The Festival of Learning award nominations are open until Wednesday 19 February. The Festival of Learning is the biggest celebration of lifelong learning in England, led by the Learning and Work Institute and supported by the Department for Education. The awards celebrate adult learning at its best: the outstanding achievements of adults who have transformed their lives and the lives of others, the employers and learning provision that offer innovative and high quality learning and training opportunities to staff, local communities and disadvantaged individuals, and the tutors that go the extra mile for the benefit of their students. The four award categories are: individual learner, employer, tutor (sponsored by the Education & Training Foundation) and projects/provision. Within these categories, winners are selected for a range of awards including Social Impact, Return to Learning, English Language Learner and Learning for Work. Entry information can be found here.
