Awards for Excellence

Jafar Miza

Jafar Mirza is the first Asian and Muslim chairman of the board of governors for a Further Education college in the UK. In recognition of his work, representing Cambridge Regional College and raising its image, the board of governors and executives honoured Mirza by naming a new building after him, which was officially opened by the Duke of York in 2004. Mirza was appointed to the Governor Advisory Group, a national group which is responsible for advising the Government on the governance issues relating to Further Education colleges. In 2003, Mirza became the governor of Anglia Ruskin University, and in 2006, was awarded an OBE for Services to Further Education.
