ABOUT THE HEIST AWARDS​

For over 30 years, the phrase ‘Heist Award’ has been synonymous with excellence and innovation in education marketing. Not only are the Heist Awards a time for celebrating the absolute best of our sector, but the awards night itself gives the hardworking marketing teams in higher and further education a chance to let their hair down. And while the past two years brought about changes and challenges no one anticipated, we saw how education marketers and institutions rose above and beyond these barriers. To deliver exceptional work, despite all circumstances.

2020 was unprecedented. 2021 saw progress. Now, in 2022, the world is finally ready to reunite – in person.
And that means the biggest event in the education marketing calendar is on. In real life. And it’s going to be better than ever.
​
With the world returning to normality, we’re so very ready to celebrate the achievements of institutions across the higher and further education sector, in the flesh. To see the satisfaction of recognition settle in on the faces of overjoyed marketers, and the brave institutions that said ‘yes’ to their bold ideas. And to rekindle the human connection that reminds us why awards are so much better celebrated, together.
