Professional Development Award 2026

Applications for the Kusuma Professional Development Awards are now open.

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

Applications for our 2026 Professional Development Awards are now open and will close on Friday 16th October with shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend an interview on Tuesday 10 or Wednesday 11 November.
