How are the applications judged?
Initially applications are assessed by the experts and the relevant internal champion who will use a template to apply an overall score to each submission. The scores will be collated to produce a matrix of scores which the experts will use to propose a long list of the best applications. The judges will select the final associations that will form the short list from this long list. Short listed associations then host an assessment visit for a delegation of judges and experts from the Corporation. The judges, experts and internal champions meet on to consider recommendations for winners. The judges will select a maximum of three gold winners for each theme. The panel will be under no obligation to appoint any winners if they are so inclined. The named contact from each winning association will be informed of their success as soon as possible after the decision is made.
