We are delighted to announce that nominations are open for the IEP Fellow of the Year Award 2025, proudly sponsored by Fedcap. Now in its third year, this prestigious award is an opportunity for IEP Fellows to recognise and celebrate the outstanding contributions of their fellow IEP Fellows who have demonstrated exceptional leadership, commitment, and impact in the Employability Sector. This is the first time Fedcap has sponsored the award, further demonstrating their commitment to excellence in employability, recently recognised with the IEP Gold Professional Excellence Award.
About the Fellow of the Year Award
Since the IEP’s establishment in 2011, Fellowship has been a vital part of our Institute. IEP Fellows play a crucial role in driving the growth and development of the IEP and the wider Employability Sector. Their contributions help shape best practice, influence policies, and inspire positive change.
The IEP Fellow of the Year Award is our way of acknowledging and congratulating Fellows who go above and beyond in supporting the IEP, our Members, and the Sector as a whole.
