This amendment expands the definition of the word "award" to include the phrase, "an award for education or training, or both". This accords both with the inclusive vision of learning in the Bill and with specific provisions on programmes leading to awards, which are described as programmes of education and training. It is to ensure that this inclusivity is contained and expressly mentioned within the Bill.
