The Electrical Industries Charity (EIC) was honoured to attend the EDA’s 11th Investor in Training Awards, held on Thursday 6 March 2025 at London’s Park Lane. The evening celebrated nine outstanding winners who have shown exceptional dedication to developing talent across the electrical wholesale and manufacturing sector.

Hosted by broadcaster Colin Murray and attended by over 570 industry professionals, the event highlighted the strength of the EDA’s training and apprenticeship programme. The Awards were sponsored by EDA Apprenticeships Plus, a valued partner in workforce development.

Not only was it a night of recognition and achievement—it was also a night of generosity. Thanks to the support of attendees and sponsors, the event raised over £8,700 for the Electrical Industries Charity. These vital funds will help us continue our mission to support those in the industry facing challenging times.

Kate Adamczyk, Director of Marrketing and Business Development at EIC, said:“It was a privilege to be part of a night that truly champions growth, talent and investment in people. The winners are not just shaping careers – they’re shaping the future of our industry. At EIC, we know that a supported workforce is a stronger workforce and events like this reinforce why collaboration and development matter so much.”

We extend our thanks to the EDA and everyone who contributed to this successful evening—your support helps power our industry’s people. You can see the full list of winners here – https://www.eda.org.uk/news/investor-in-training-awards-2025/
