Awards Ceremony 2009
Carnegie College’s Awards Ceremony took place on Thursday 28 May in the Carnegie Hall, Dunfermline, to celebrate the achievements and success of students from across the college. Prize winners have all been nominated for awards by members of staff, recognised for many different reasons and from all areas of the college.

For some students there is the recognition of excellence in attainment and academic achievement, some are recognised for their team work and imagination in achieving mutual goals and last but not least those who have displayed excellence in overcoming adversity or hardship and travelled further along the learning route than they ever thought possible. The Awards are divided into 4 categories

• those sponsored by businesses
• by professional organisations
• by the College, and
• those presented in memory of former College students and staff.

The college is always pleased when employers acknowledge the working partnership between their business and the College by offering to sponsor an award. We are extremely grateful to SRJ Windows of Oakley for their continued sponsorship of our Student of the Year Award, which this year went to Ashley Emslie.

Business Enterprise Week

winners.jpgTo mark National Enterprise Week, the Andrew Carnegie Business School at Carnegie College held a series of events from Tuesday 25 November – Friday 28 November. The week’s activities gave our students the opportunity to find out more about business in the real world and how they might start their own business too. The skills required to start up in business are also the skills that many large employers such as Shell, Sky, Marks and Spencers, who were all involved in this week too, want from their employees – an entrepreneurial approach and innovative ideas for products and services. The week was about demonstrating that, whether as an employee or self-employed, there are exciting opportunities in business that are there to be grasped.
