Raoul Humphreys, deputy CEO of Cornwall College, said: "The entries to this year's awards have all been exceptional and I know the judges had a very difficult time in selecting just one winner in each category. It is so inspiring to see the tremendous successes that businesses in the South West have seen as a result of training and developing their staff and is always a pleasure to take the opportunity to celebrate with those businesses at the awards. Congratulations to the shortlisted and winning individuals and businesses."
