THE CAREER ACADEMY AWARDS
We believe the exceptional should be awarded.
Each year, we notice that there are a few students who excel in their course, either through exceptional hard work, an infectious enthusiasm, or a deep understanding of the course content. So far, these students have been the unsung heroes of The Career Academy. Their tutors love them, but we think the whole world should know who they are.
That’s why we created The Career Academy awards.
We’ll be giving away an award to one exceptional student from each subject. These students have been hand-picked by the tutors for their ability to shine in their course. Some have performed spectacularly academically, others have worked hard and succeeded despite difficult circumstances, and others have simply made their tutors days a little bit brighter. Whatever their achievements, we think its important to celebrate them, and who knows, you might even be a recipient yourself.
