One of our former students - Steve Welch, a Senior Specialist Commercial Manager with the Department for Work and Pensions, has won the 2010 CIPS 'Royal Mail Award'. The award is presented to the CIPS student who achieved the highest aggregate mark in the Graduate Diploma examinations for Level 6, in conjunction with passing all exams at Levels 4 and 5 and 6 without failing any exams.

Steve said:

"I am shocked but extremely pleased and honoured to receive the award. As well as being fantastic news for me personally, I'd like to thank Ray and his team at DPSS. My success has been down to not only my own hard work, but the significant contribution from DPSS, their approach and delivery style during workshops, course content and delivery techniques, which undoubtedly delivered the quality foundations to give me the opportunity to so well in the exams"
