CDN College Awards 2022
The CDN College Awards took place on Friday 25 November at Radisson Blu in Glasgow with over 280 guests – the biggest Scottish College Awards ever – celebrating the talent, innovation and success demonstrated by our colleges, their staff and their students.
The ambition and excellence of this sector was reflected in the record-breaking number of entries this year – 160 submissions, from every part of the country. All the inspirational submissions and testimonials can be viewed in the interactive guide here.
This year we warmly welcomed back the wonderful Amy Irons to take the mic as our host for the evening.
We were also delighted to hear from guest speaker Jamie Hepburn, MSP, Minister for Higher Education and Further Education, Youth Employment and Training.
As well as presentation of 13 prestigious prizes, the awards ceremony also included radio presenter Edith Bowman being inducted into the CDN College Hall of Fame.
As well as presentation of 14 prestigious prizes, we were treated to some fabulous entertainment from New College Lanarkshire HND Music Students.
