Leading recruitment provider, Blue Eskimo, to sponsor the ‘Onboarding Programme of the Year’ award at the 2016 Learning Awards

 

The Learning and Performance Institute (LPI) is pleased to announce that Blue Eskimo will sponsor the brand-new Onboarding Programme of the Year award at the 2016 Learning Awards.

Blue Eskimo is a specialist recruitment provider to both commercial learning companies and corporate L&D departments.

Nick Bate, director at Blue Eskimo, says that the recruitment provider is proud to sponsor the award. “Like the training they celebrate, the awards are also one of the sector’s great success stories. For many organisations, powerful learning initiatives can go unnoticed and uncelebrated, part of business as usual. The Learning Awards enable learning professionals to inspire each other, and learn from each other.”

Edmund Monk, Managing Director, LPI, said, "Having Blue Eskimo sponsor Onboarding Programme of the Year is particularly exciting as the award is brand-new for 2016 and there is much anticipation as to who will be the first-ever winner."

"The Learning Awards offers sponsors a highly visible platform to demonstrate their association with the very best that L&D has to offer. Now in its 20th year, no other awards ceremony in this sector carries quite the same level of prestige and authority as the LPI's Learning Awards. We are proud to have Blue Eskimo as a sponsor."

The selected finalists for this award are AIG, Farmfoods & Sponge UK, Elephants don’t forget, Infosys BPO, Pearson & Landscape and Portugal Telecom.

The awards ceremony will take place in February 2016 at the 5-star Dorchester hotel in Park Lane, London. With over 400 invited delegates in attendance, the event has been described as the highlight of the L&D calendar. Winning a Learning Award represents the pinnacle of achievement for many learning professionals.
