Judging Criteriaimage awards (1)

It is important to remember that the Image Awards program is a public relations competition. As such, it is the public relations aspect of the entry that will receive the greatest scrutiny by the judges. To this end, the judges first read and evaluate the summary accompanying the entry. Seventy percent of the scoring is based on the summary that sets out the reason and need for the development of the public relations program or tool, how it was implemented and the results. The judges then review the support materials for professionalism, innovation and design to score the remaining 30 percent of the entry.

The judging method allows the judges to concentrate on the following criteria required in each two-page summary:

Judging Process & Rubric

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

FPRA has recently revamped its Image and Golden Image judge scoring process to provide more specificity. The new judging instrument requires specific criteria to be met to earn an increasing level of points.

Because additional information is being asked to be addressed by entrants, the one-inch margin rule is changing to a .75 margin and the double-spacing requirement has changed to 1.5 spacing. These changes will provide entrants with the additional space needed to cover the new criteria outlined in the provided rubric. New requirements include the following:

  • Goals are asked to be identified.
  • Strategies and tactics should be provided.
  • Audience identification should address psychographic and demographic information.
  • Communication channels used to reach target audience should be included.
  • Sequencing of events (or timeline) addressed within implementation section.
  • Assigned responsibilities for plan execution should be addressed within implementation phase.
  • Inclusion of communication messages used to reach identified target audiences.

For specifics related to these new judging metrics, please consult the following judging rubric.

The following rubric is grounded in our profession’s established body of knowledge. Sources used to develop rubric include the “Cutlip & Center’s Effective Public Relations, Eleventh Edition,” the “APR Study Guide from the Universal Accreditation Board” and “Public Relations and the Power of Creativity: Strategic Opportunities, Innovation and Critical Challenges.”


JUDGING TEAMS:
Each entry will be scored by a team of three judges. Judging teams will be assigned to the same set of entries within any given Division and Category to ensure consistency and fairness. All appointed Image judges must have won an Image or Golden Image Award and it is strongly encouraged that they be Accredited. Judges will score each entry independently and then work as a team for final award selection/confirmation.

JUDGING SCORING PROCESS
All Image entries must be submitted via FPRA’s online Image Awards platform to be considered as an official Image Award entry. Through this platform, judges will score entries by answering a series of questions that correspond with the provided rubric. Based on their answers, the system will assign a score to each section being answered. These scores and award assignments, based on the judge’s answers, will then be provided to the judging teams to review and verify.
