STAR Award nomination deadline extended until 27 June
To allow for a busy period in the further education and skills sector calendar, the deadline to make nominations for the QIA STAR Awards 2008 has been extended to 27 June 2008.
Learners and further education staff have requested more time to make their STAR nominations due to the hectic exam period and half term break. In response to this request we have extended the deadline by three weeks. Anyone can nominate, so if you know someone who works hard to improve the quality of teaching and learning, you now have until Friday 27 June to make your nomination.
The nomination process is simple and can be done online.
