Assessment of Nominations

Judging Panels are established to determine finalists and winners in each Award category. ACSA appoints National Judging Panels comprised of at least 3 individuals to assess nominations in each Award category. These Judging Panels will have complete discretion when considering nominations and their decisions in respect of the Awards are final. Judges may call for additional information or clarification on individual nominations/applications.

In the case of a tie, ACSA will determine the Award winner. No correspondence will be entered into in respect of a Judging Panel’s decision, and a Judging Panel’s decision cannot be appealed.

Important

All nominations are to be made on the Nomination Forms provided and submitted electronically to events@acs.asn.au. Please ensure you complete the Nomination Form and the Criteria Form. 

All nominations should provide sufficient information to enable proper assessment by the Judging Panel. Because the judges come from many different walks of life, some do not have intimate knowledge of the industry.

We request all nominees heed to the limitations placed on the forms provided. The members of the judging panel are giving their time voluntarily and we do not wish to make their task an onerous one.

We request the two referees listed on the nomination each submit a brief letter outlining their support.
