Award Recipients

Learning Resource Network (LRN), a UK-based awarding organisation regulated by Ofqual, has been awarded the King’s Award for Enterprise for International Trade – one of the United Kingdom’s most prestigious business honours – for the second time in six years.

LRN exports UK qualifications and centre accreditation across 58 countries, supporting more than 1.2 million learners worldwide. For many learners in emerging markets, an LRN qualification represents their primary pathway into higher education or employment.

Named among 185 UK organisations receiving a King’s Award in 2026, LRN was first recognised with the Queen’s Award for Enterprise in 2020. Its global network of approved centres partners with schools, colleges, training providers and employers to deliver accessible, high-quality qualifications.

CEO Dr Muhammad Zohaib Tariq says: “This honour reflects the sustained growth of our international work, the strength of our partnerships, and the hard work and loyalty of my team.”
