The PQ magazine awards are here – time to get nominating!

Nominations are now open for the PQ magazine awards 2026.

It really is time to get nominating for what has become the biggest night in the accountancy education calendar, but you won’t be there if you don’t enter!

Last year’s big winner on the night was Grace Hardy (pictured), who won both Personality of the Year and Podcast of the Year trophies.

Accountancy body of the Year went to ICAS, and Net Zero Accountancy Initiative walked away with Innovation of the Year.

Online College of the Year was awarded to Premier Training, and Chesterfield College’s Fay Hill won the Public Sector Lecturer of the Year to add to her AAT Training Provide award.

So, how do you get your hands on a PQ? Well, pick a category and make your case to be shortlisted in no more than 500 words. If you feel you need to add supporting material then please provide this separately, but your entry will be primarily judged on those 500 words!

To download the application form simply go to: https://www.pqmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/PQ-Awards-2026-Nomination-Form.pdf

Once you have your entry sorted send it off to us at awards2026@pqmagazine.com. A word document is fine, we don’t need anything fancy. And that is it, it is that simple.

Remember, if you make it onto that shortlist you get to come to the awards night (for free) in London next April.

So, don’t miss out on a unique night in the accountancy calendar!

Deadline for entries is Friday 6 March 2026.
