BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The Awards for Communications Excellence (ACE) is a competition to recognize excellence in all areas of communication. The ACE program has been designed to honor, reward and celebrate the achievements of outstanding communication programs, campaigns and projects, and to comprehensively encompass all areas of “communications excellence."  It also serves to enhance the professional development of chamber professionals through the evaluation and recognition of their communications efforts.

All complete entries are reviewed by two independent judges who have significant communications experience and who are familiar with the general missions, goals, and financial limitations of chambers of commerce and not-for-profit organizations.

Each entry is evaluated on a 100-point scale and consists of four parts: 1.) a 75-100 word summary of the entry, 2.) a 2–4 page synopsis, 3.) the communication piece, 4.) supporting documents. Two judges evaluate each entry and a composite score is determined. ACE judges review all entry components.
