About this award

Education and Training Awards

Introducing the Education and Training Awards

Is there a more noble cause than training the workforce of today to cope with the challenges of tomorrow? Here at Corporate Vision Magazine, we cannot think of one, which is why we seek to honour all those who go above and beyond in the Private Education sector in the Education & Training Awards 2022.

With the need to improve one’s skills and abilities, comes the need for quality, informative education delivery and learning materials, as such Corporate Vision take pride in providing the platform where the efforts of all involved in workplace education and training for a fourth consecutive year.

The pandemic has placed a strain on education, leading to the requirement for new, innovative ways to teach, learn and train. It also saw a drive for re-employment, with professionals looking to hone their skills, or explore new skill sets to alter their career paths.

Our Awards have always been centred around recognising and rewarding the determination, ambition, and excellence of the world's finest educators - from the key education providers, to training specialists and educational technology innovators.

Regardless of size and reach, the Education & Training Awards will be assessed and judged purely on merit and excellence, this approach enables us to ensure that only the most deserving, innovative and dedicated are acknowledged. Taking part in an award programme like the Private Education Awards 2022, is a spectacular way of showcasing the strengths and successes of your institution. It shows your confidence in the efforts of your staff and students and signifies to potential learners, and their parents, the quality and belief you have in your institution, that you welcome the scrutiny of an outside organisation.

Those who are successful within the Education & Training Awards will be given the opportunity to access materials which help showcase and market your success to learners, parents, and other stakeholders. We currently offer a variety of promotional items and industry-leading services to help enhance the impetus of any success whilst also increasing the reach as you display the acumen and strengths which won you your award.

Inclusion in the Education & Training Awards remains the perfect opportunity to commemorate the hard work undertaken by businesses, initiatives, and enterprises within the sector.

Our Methodology

Gathering Nominees

Researching nominees

The Corporate Vision team work diligently to identify market leaders, innovators and enterprising start-ups, driving many of the nominations themselves.

We also encourage external nominations from Corporate Vision subscribers, online visitors, social media followers, clients and from our wider group circulation.

Nominating parties are invited to put forward either third-party businesses whom they hold in high regard, or their own organisation.

Shortlisting

Shortlisting nominees

All nominees are formally requested to accept their nomination. Should any firm or individual rather decline at this point, they are simply taken out of the running.

Nominees who formally accept their nomination are given the opportunity to submit additional materials in support of their initial nomination. Although there is no obligation to supply material, we have found that many nominees value this stage in the process as much as our research team.

Evaluating and Judging

Evaluating and judging

Our dedicated research team will assess all material submitted by the nominee in order to determine winners based on merit, not popularity. The team also gather information independently from a variety of publicly accessible sources.

Ultimately, the research team casts their judgment based on various criteria, including:

  • Client dedication
  • Innovation
  • Business growth
  • Longevity
  • Online reputation
  • Customer feedback
  • Business performance
The Lucky Winners

Winners

Once winners are determined, they are personally notified before any public announcement is made, allowing time for any communications throughout the wider business and the coordination of marketing strategies.

Once the press embargo is lifted, details of the winners will be made public via the website, award winners’ magazine and subscriber newsletter.

Announcements via company websites, social media, press releases, and through local and national press are all great ways of maximising the exposure which can be gained from such an achievement.

FAQs

How long has Corporate Vision Magazine been in circulation for?+
Corporate Vision was launched in December of 2014. Since then, the magazine has been published monthly to a global circulation of 155,000 business leaders, managers, recruiters and experts. The platform is bought to you by AI Global Media, a B2B digital publishing group founded in 2010. The group currently has 13 brands within its portfolio including luxury lifestyle, construction, healthcare and small business focused publications. AI Global Media is dedicated to delivering content you can trust to each of its readers, subscribers, clients and visitors.
Where did the nomination come from?+
In the interest of nurturing an environment proven to produce a high response rate, we don’t ask nominees to reveal any personal identity. With regards to methodology, we often nominate candidates ourselves and, when it comes to voting, if you didn’t cast a vote through a self-submission, it is likely to have been cast via a colleague or client who has received one of our direct invitations. One of the main mantras of our awards system is that your ability to succeed is not linked to the number of votes received, meaning your award is presented purely on merit. In the interest of security and fairness, we are able to track unusual behaviour on our website to identify repeat votes and cyber-threats.
What happens if I agree to be shortlisted?+
In the interest of focusing our efforts on relevant and eager candidates, we ask all nominees to accept their position on the shortlist giving people complete control in the decision on whether they would like to move forward with the award. Nominees who accept are subject to our scrutiny during the internal vetting procedure and are given the opportunity to present their own data to be considered alongside information collated by our research team. This can take up to 8 weeks for final assessments to be rendered.
Who makes the final decision?+
We employ an entirely impartial panel of five individuals to conduct all research. At the helm of the panel, is a veteran academic leader with international academic and training experience and is well versed in research, fact-checking and mediation. This two-tiered system allows for a neutral mediator which we feel allows a more efficient method when determining individuals and companies most deserving of winning an award and has brought us much success and commendation throughout its use.
Is there a winner’s ceremony/award dinner?+
The short answer is, no. We decided to not focus our efforts on a celebratory event. Despite being an enjoyable occasion, it doesn’t support our group’s philosophy of cost-effective marketing. We follow the belief that optional costs associated with an award are better placed in a year’s worth of online marketing for the winner rather than spending large sums on a ceremonial evening. Our press announcements are made digitally, online and across our network to enforce our position as digital publishers. We aim to provide you with the tools (both digital and physical) to generate real-world value.
What happens if I am deemed successful?+
After you have been notified, we enforce a short press embargo while the programme manager liaises with you to establish your preferred method of coverage. Generally, our coverage takes the form of a digital celebratory magazine, but we also offer physical trophies, wall mounted certificates and plaques and digital certificates, web-based advertisements and press releases which can be custom designed for you or your company.
Are there any costs involved?+
As mentioned, there are no compulsory costs in accepting a nomination or winning an award with Corporate Vision. We do offer a variety of paid additional benefits for our winners, but these are completely optional. To demonstrate our commitment to no mandatory fees, all our winners are offered a free of charge promotional package. Our company policy will always remain that, regardless of budget, our clients should always be able to garner the full value of the award and our seal of approval. We offer a variety of promotional opportunities to our winners, as we have an extensive network and we know, more than anyone, the wider business benefits from promoting industry awards.
