BIGGA’s Head of Member Development Sami Strutt said: “We received 75 completed applications for this fantastic member opportunity. Whittling them down to just five has been a real challenge! The recipients of the scholarship, sponsored by ICL, will benefit from both attending great education and networking with their peers. We look forward to welcoming the ICL Continue to Learn Scholars to BTME 2020 for what promises to be another great event.”
Continue to Learn at BTME 2020 will take place at Harrogate Convention Centre from Sunday 19 - Wednesday 22 January 2020. The extensive education programme will run alongside the BTME.
