Awards

  • Learning Excellence Awards

    The Learning Excellence Awards are business awards for the whole business training/learning and development sector.

    The Learning Excellence Awards are UK-based but attract overseas entries. They are impartial and independent and look to reward relevant, agile, innovative, excellent and effective initiatives, programmes, products and services wherever they may be found. Each year the Awards are open to in-house training, learning, and development teams and activities, to external professional practitioners and to suppliers to the sector.

  • Go:Tech Awards

    This award is no longer running as its own programme. Owned by Business Leader Magazine, the awards have been combined with their other programmes to create the Business Leader Awards. You can view the awards here: https://www.augustawards.com/business-leader-awards/

    The Business Leader Awards celebrate the success of mid-sized businesses – the backbone of the UK economy. Previously three separate awards (Scale-Up, Go:Tech, and Business Leader South West Awards), they are now combined into one platform dedicated to recognising excellence and innovation.
