Whats the difference between a contest and a critique (or between a Pacemaker and an All-American/First Class rating)?

0

The Pacemaker and other contests are annual competitions in which hundreds of publications are judged to identify finalists and winners. The contests include no feedback or recommendations for any publication, while the critique service serves that primary purpose. Entering the critique ensures your publication staff personalized feedback from a professional journalist, experienced media adviser, or other media professional who serves on NSPA’s board of judges. Publications receive a rating based on their work. Critique ratings are Third Class through All American. Any publication with a Level One (basic) membership may enter the contests, but a Level Two membership is necessary for a critique.
