Whether you work in student recruitment, outreach, widening access or marketing, there is a HELOA award for you!
The HELOA Awards serve as a platform to recognise and celebrate the achievements of our members. They highlight Best Practice and allow colleagues across the sector to exchange knowledge on how best to assist students in making informed decisions that contribute positively to their academic and professional journeys.
The Awards not only acknowledge individual and collective efforts but they also foster a culture of excellence within the educational landscape.
The HELOA Awards 2026 will take place in January 2026, with nominations opening in Autumn 2025.
