Dear MACE member

You still have time – early bird entries close on 2 September 2022, and the final closing date for the 2022 MACE Excellence Awards is 30 September 2022!
This prestigious awards programme provides you with the opportunity to showcase your work and to get recognition from your peers.

It is a flagship programme of MACE that has been benchmarked against international programmes such as the Gold Quill Awards from the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC), and the Circle of Excellence Awards from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE).
Do not miss the opportunity to shine!

Where to start:

Start by deciding what you want to enter and the division and category/categories you want to enter in. You will find all the information in the Preparing for Excellence Guide.

As soon as you have made these decisions, you are ready to enter. Use the entry form templates provided on the website to create your entry. There are different entry forms for each division.

Tips of the week:

Pay special attention to the following when creating your entry:

• State output and outcome objectives and formulate them according to the SMART formula.
• Make sure that your strategic approach is aligned with the business need and the objectives.
• Remember the budget when explaining your implementation.
