CANDI’s students, staff and business partners gather to celebrate commitment and achievement at a special awards event.
Students, staff and business partners working with City and Islington College (CANDI) took part in the CANDI Business End of Year Awards Ceremony. The event took place on 9 May at CANDI’s Centre for Business, Arts and Technology (CBAT).
The awards event was organised by Business Level 3 National Diploma students as part of their course. Planning and hosting the event contributed to part of their curriculum and allowed them to gain hands-on experience in event management.
Over 350 students attended the event, coming from a range of Business and Professional Services Courses including marketing, business and vocational studies. They were joined by a number of staff members from CANDI’s Business Department, the Head of School and the Assistant Principal.
During the event, a wide range of awards were presented to recognise the hard work and accomplishments of students and staff. The student accolades covered several individual awards as well as class awards and medals. Nominees for all student awards were selected by CANDI’s business lecturers.
Awards were also presented to CANDI Business Lecturers to highlight their dedication to supporting their students.
The event also recognised seven of CANDI’s business partners for their continued commitment to education with awards announced for Better Gym, Alan Day Group, Arsenal in the Community, Open Creates, Levitt Bernstein, Barratt Homes, and University of Westminster.
Attendees also celebrated the graduation of CANDI’s Business students who are completing their studies this year. After the awards ceremony, staff and students had the opportunity to network with guests attending on behalf of the college’s business partners.
Business lecturer Jennisha Chin said: “The event was a good experience that demonstrated the student’s learner journey as well as the hard work and commitment our curriculum offers.”
Morwenna Nsubuga, a Level 2 Business student, said: “It was good to see everyone celebrating and cheering everyone, especially when I got my award”. Jowani Paczkowski, also a Level 2 Business student, said: “It was good to see everyone get recognised for things they have achieved.”
Congratulations to all of CANDI’s students, staff and business partners for their awards!
