Nominations for 2022 NSW Training Awards now open

Nominations recognising outstanding early childhood education and care (ECEC) vocational education and training (VET) providers are now being sought in New South Wales as part of the lead up to the 2022 NSW Training Awards. 

The Awards, led by the NSW Department of Education, are conducted annually in collaboration with Training Services NSW to recognise outstanding achievement by individuals and organisations in the VET sector.

Nominations are open now, and close 18 March 2022. Held at a Regional and State level, the Awards celebrate and reward the achievements of students, trainers and teachers, Registered Training Organisations (RTOs), as well as large and small employers.

A key aim of the Awards is to discover ambassadors for the VET sector and provide winners and finalists with a launching pad for opportunities in their industries and sectors and within their local communities.

With seven individual award categories, nominations can be fielded by employers, industry representatives, teachers or trainers, principals and RTOs themselves.

The finalists in each Award category are recognised at regional events, where their accomplishments at work and study are celebrated. If applicants are successful at the regional level as a category winner they will go on to the state awards, leading to potential ambassador opportunities.

State winners will progress to the national level at the Australian Training Awards, where they’ll have the opportunity to meet and network with like-minded people from across the country and ultimately compete for the national title.
