Cornwall Apprenticeship Awards 2019
The shortlist has been announced!
The fifth annual Cornwall Apprenticeship Awards will be taking place on Friday 15 November 2019.
The 2019 Cornwall Apprenticeship Awards will be hosted by Truro and Penwith College on Friday 15 November.
Hosted by Truro and Penwith College with support from Cornwall-wide business sponsors, the Awards recognise and reward the exceptional achievement of learners and employers involved in Apprenticeship training.
The 2019 Awards sees the addition of two brand new categories: The Beacon Award for Inclusive Apprenticeship Recruitment will reward employers who go the extra mile to support mental health and disability, while Land-based Apprentice of the Year will recognise Apprentices working in agriculture or horticultural roles.
Guests will be treated to live music from Truro and Penwith College students at a reception from 6:00pm, followed by a three course dinner that will be designed, prepared and served by the College's Hospitality team.
The dress code for the evening is black tie or lounge suits and cocktail dresses. Tables will seat ten guests.
