Prizegiving
Thirty three students have been awarded prizes by Shetland UHI in recognition of their achievements during 2020 and 2021. Due to the ongoing Covid restrictions it has not been possible to hold in-person prize giving events for the last two years, so the prizes were awarded in an online ceremony.
The Shetland UHI prizegiving ceremony amalgamated the prizes previously awarded by the former NAFC Marine Centre UHI, Shetland College UHI, and Train Shetland. Full news story and video available here.
