The judging process requires a commitment of approximately 10 to 15 hours between May 21 and June 11.

The scoring results are submitted electronically so it is necessary for judges to have access to a computer and the internet.
The PATH Intl. staff will consider all individuals who submit their names. Judges will be selected on a first come, first served basis based on distribution across the various PATH Intl. regions.
