Nominating an individual leader

Please read through the following guidance carefully.

The awards nominations process is online.

Nominations should be submitted online by the nominator.

There are four different online nomination forms for:

• Individual learners
• Tutors
• Learning provision
• Employers

The online nomination form needs to be completed in one sitting. You cannot save a partially completed nomination form and return to it later. Therefore, we strongly advise you to prepare and draft your nomination using this document in advance (see nomination questions below).

It is possible to submit multiple nominations. Once one nomination has been completed and submitted online, you will be able to begin the form again to start a new nomination.

Nominations for individual learners will need to include written statements from the nominee. It is the nominator’s responsibility to explain the nominations process to the nominee and obtain the relevant written statements from the nominee for inclusion in their nomination.

Based on the information provided, nominations for individual learners will be considered for all relevant awards within the individual learner category.

Preparing and drafting nominations

The questions within the individual learner nomination form are provided here to help you prepare and draft your nomination. We recommend that you use this document to do this

for the following reasons:

• It will enable you to review all questions on the nomination form before completing any answers. The online nomination form requires you to complete one section before you can move on to view the next.

• You will be able to work on your nomination form without being connected to the internet. An internet connection is required to work on the online nomination form.

• Should you encounter any technical issues with the online form, you will still have a saved copy of your work in this Word document.

• To keep a copy of your final nomination for your own records. Once your nomination has been submitted, you will no longer be able to access it online.
