"IABC offers an outstanding program that elevates our profession and our work."

How does evaluation work?
Each entry is evaluated independently by at least two trained evaluators who provide scoring and feedback. Evaluators look for evidence of careful planning and documentation of an entry's success through well-defined objectives with measurable results. Quantitative results are highly desired.
Evaluators consider how well a program is conceived, created and executed for its intended audiences, as well as appropriateness of the strategy and objectives in relation to results desired and achieved. Evaluations also receive a quality control check.
