Trainees celebrate success in RSM awards for research and audit
The recent RSM Trainee Section event combining research, innovation and audit was the backdrop for a series of presentations by trainees competing for a set of prestigious prizes, including a new addition to the RSM’s roster of prizes and awards.
The John Glyn Audit Prize presentations have been a regular fixture for a number of years and in 2022 an entirely new set of prizes to reward and recognise trainee research was also up for grabs.
Speaking at the event, Dr Nuru Noor, a member of the team organising the prizes, said: “These prizes were phenomenally competitive with a very large number of applicants from trainees across all specialities. All the shortlisted presenters deserve huge credit for the quality of work presented and will have a national conference presentation to add to their CVs.”
The meeting organisers hope that the experiences gained at the event will help the participants to develop ideas and collaborations for the future.
“We would like to extend a huge congratulations to everyone involved in submitting, presenting and winning these awards - which we are sure will go from strength to strength for each year going forward," added Dr Noor.
