Judging Criteria Glossary
Each award has specific Judging Criteria and many awards share similar criteria. For further clarity, these criteria are defined in detail below. Each criterion within a category needs to be addressed, however, the nominator reserves the right to only answer those bullet points deemed applicable to their submission. The judges welcome creative responses with quantifiable information. The online nomination form allows no more than 300 words per criterion. Criteria listing is in alphabetical order.
