People wanting to boost their career prospects can nominate themselves, and employers wanting to recognise the contribution of their best employees can nominate their members of staff.
Head of skills competitions and awards at organisers SummitSkills, Neil Collishaw, said: “These awards really celebrate the best of the best in our sector, so if you know someone whose talent and determination deserves recognition, we want to know about them. “
