Professional Development Award 2025

Applications for 2025 have now closed – This page will remain open as a point of reference for applicants who applied before the deadline.

Every year we support individuals working in Gibraltar to undertake professional development courses where there is no funding available from the Government or their employer. Recipients of the funding must be working in areas that directly benefit those living and working in Gibraltar. Applications can also be submitted by individuals or by groups of employees from the same organisation, but may be subject to requests for further information.

Candidates applying for the Professional Development Award must meet the following criteria:

* Be working in Gibraltar for a minimum of three years immediately prior to commencement of their selected course
* Be employed in a role that directly impacts and benefits those who live and work in Gibraltar
* Demonstrate a commitment to excellence in their occupation

In 2025 our applications opened on Monday 29 September and closed on Friday 31 October 2025. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend a panel interview held in the week commencing 17 November 2025.
