Virtuoso Awards: Taking Submissions Now!
|
Put your time to good use: Submit an application for Virtuoso Awards
By Adam Veen
You've likely already heard, but we're pleased to tell you again the Virtuoso Awards Call for Entries is open. We all know time flies, but this month you get an extra day, so put it to good use.
Here's a quick reminder about changes to the application process:
Previously, categories in Communication Skills (Division 4) required the same work plan as Communication Management divisions. This year, a Division 4 work plan has been shortened to just six questions (with 100 word responses).
These recent changes make it easier for you to submit, but also for you to showcase your skills and talents in marketing and communication and be recognized.
