Judging Process

‍
Projects will be judged in three rounds, using the Judgify platform and discussion to determine the final results.

‍

Judging Round 1 Judges will vote “Go” or “No Go” to each project based on the board submission only.

Judging Round 2 Judges will narrow down projects to the top 40% based on the board submission and narratives.

Judging Round 3 Judges will meet virtually to discuss the finalists and select the Project Award winners, Best Moment winner, and Honorable Mention recipients.

‍

Submission Window

‍
In 2022, IIDA GPC implemented a new awards platform, Judgify, to simply the submission and judging processes.

‍

Registration, project submission, and payment will all be done through Judgify. Once registered, Judgify's confirmation email will include the submission template and criteria.

‍

Be on the look out at the beginning of each year for the submission window dates and deadlines. Good Luck!
