We are celebrating after being announced the winners of this year’s Skills Developer award at the Dynamites North East Tech Awards hosted by Dynamo North.
The award was for Digital Up North with judges commenting that we have ‘truly embedded employers at every stage of its journey, with a commitment to developing future talent that continues to strengthen the North East’s digital community.’
Through Digital Up North, we’re bringing education and businesses closer together, helping to tackle skills gaps and develop the next generation of talent across the North East.
This is the second year that Digital Up North has won the Skills Developer Award.
Phil O’Neil, assistant principal for curriculum and skills, said “It’s fantastic that Digital Up North has been recognised in this way for the second time. This award win is a credit to the hard work from our digital technology staff and everyone in the college to deliver hands‑on training and standout events, which are helping to shape the North East’s digital scene and showing just how powerful working together can be.”
It’s the third time that we have received a Dynamites Award. In 2023, we also scooped the Skills Developer Award for our Employment Edge ethos, placing learners, employers and the community at the core of digital skills development.
As part of the awards, we also sponsored the outstanding workplace award, congratulations to Layers.Studio for creating a workplace where people can thrive.
Well done to all the winners, we are already looking forward to next year.
