Proud sponsors of the Cornwall Apprenticeship Awards
The Cornwall Apprenticeship Awards seek to celebrate the impact of apprenticeships across the region, with 16 categories covering apprentices, employers and mentors.
This year will be the 11th edition of the annual awards, part of Truro and Penwith College’s National Apprenticeship Week celebrations in 2027.
iCQ Awards are proud to be a part of this year’s awards programme, as sponsors of the Hospitality Apprentice of the Year category. This category recognises exceptional apprentices who are making quality contributions to their employer while finding their futures in hospitality, with other categories across a range of sectors.
Our strong commitment to the hospitality sector, where we have supported the learning journeys of thousands of apprentices, made this a golden opportunity to take part in the celebrations.
Nominations are open until 19 October
We encourage organisations and individuals to take part. Nominations are accepted from anyone including employers, friends, family members and colleagues. Employers and apprentices can even nominate themselves.
The free to enter process is open to anyone who has taken part in or provided apprenticeship training since June 2025, regardless of their training provider. The business’s head office or main business premises should be based in Cornwall or the Isles of Scilly.
“Supporting the next generation of hospitality professionals is at the heart of what we do at iCQ Awards. Through our qualifications, apprenticeship assessments and the Future Stars initiative, we are committed to helping learners develop the skills, confidence and opportunities to build rewarding careers in hospitality.
“We are proud to sponsor the Hospitality Apprentice of the Year Award, recognising the exceptional talent, dedication and passion shown by apprentices across Cornwall. Their commitment, alongside the invaluable support of their employers and training providers, is helping to shape a vibrant and resilient future for our industry.”
Dennis Twomey, Managing Director at iCQ Awards
