Offering sponsorship of up to £7,500 to attend an established academic or training course in the UK, this award is primarily designed to assist individuals to benefit from opportunities that would not normally be available to them from their employer’s ongoing training and development support arrangements.
The award will concentrate on assisting individuals of any discipline and level who are striving to develop their career in a manner which is seen to be of benefit to the utilities industry.
To enter the Business Skills Award, candidates must submit a short paper (max 1000 words) outlining why they want the sponsorship and how they expect to benefit, and complete an application form which can be downloaded here. These will need to be returned to caroline@sbgi.org.uk or by post to Caroline Taylor, SBGI, Camden House, Warwick Road, Kenilworth Warwickshire CV81TH.
