Pertemps Network Group chair Carmen Watson has been inducted into an exclusive international group of experts recognising her lifelong dedication to promoting learning and development.
Being presented with a Fellowship to the City and Guilds London Institute is the highest honour the world-renowned skills organisation can bestow.
Carmen, who has been with Pertemps since 1976, was awarded the honour by the Princess Royal at a ceremony at Goldsmiths Hall, in London, at the end of April.
It is conferred on individuals who have made a significant contribution in their field through practical application of technical education and skills development.
There are fewer than 500 fellows worldwide.
Carmen, who attended the ceremony with daughter Rebecca and Pertemps People Development director Andy Long, said: “This is a huge honour to be inducted to such an elite group of learning and development professionals.
“Of course, the hard work of all those I have worked with over the years has been a massive contributing factor to this, so I would just like to thank my colleagues and encourage everyone to keep doing what you are doing in the learning and development space.
“Our people are, and will always remain, our greatest asset.”
Pertemps is based in Meriden, West Midlands.
