Academic excellence celebrated at CAW Student Awards 2016

Students and staff at The College of Animal Welfare had their hard work and achievements celebrated at the College’s Student Awards Ceremony on Saturday 26 November 2016.

The annual event recognises all forms of success within the College; whether it be academic excellence, overcoming personal challenges or making a real difference in their group or to the College as a whole. Award winners came from across all four of the College’s centres in the UK; including distance learning students and those learning in their workplace.

In addition to the presentation of awards, the ceremony also hosted a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) Veterinary Nursing Declaration Ceremony, where newly qualified and registered veterinary nurses made their professional declaration.

Barbara Cooper, Principal of The College of Animal Welfare, said: ‘The Awards Ceremony has always been one of the biggest highlights of our annual calendar, and this year we were delighted to have Julie Dugmore, Director of Veterinary Nursing at the RCVS, join us to present the awards.’

She continued: ‘On behalf of everyone at The College of Animal Welfare, I would like to congratulate all of our award winners, who have worked incredibly hard. I am confident they will go on to achieve even greater things as they progress onto the next stage of their careers.’  

The winners were presented with their awards during a ceremony at the College’s centre in Chord Business Park on London Road in Godmanchester. A full list of award winners can be found at www.caw.ac.uk
