JUDGING PROCESS

Campaign Awards
Participating companies were invited to submit a programme summary on their training and development programmes. The written
submissions were then reviewed by the Board of Examiners which comprises members of the People Development Management
Committee, People Management Committee and the Awards Organizing Committee. Ten finalists as well as recipients of all Special
Awards were selected. Ten finalists were then invited to give a presentation at the Final Presentation Seminar assessed by the Panel
of Adjudicators and Board of Examiners. The Seminar was specially designed to select the Award winners and provide an experience–
sharing platform for all executives.

Individual Awards
All Award entrants were nominated by their organizations. They were required to submit a write-up explaining their achievements in
training and human resources development and were invited to an interview session.

For Distinguished Trainer Award candidates, the interview session will include a 15-minute presentation and a 10-minute Q-&-A session
by the Board of Examiners. The presentation should cover all the judging criteria. For Outstanding New Trainer Award candidates, the
interview session will be divided into two parts. The first part will include a 10-minute presentation, covering all the judging criteria,
to be followed by a 5-minute Q-&-A session by the Board of Examiners. The second part will include a 10-minute short training.
Participants would be informed of the training topics 30 minutes before the interview session. Winners of Distinguished Trainer Awards
and Outstanding New Trainer Awards were selected by the Board of Examiners while the Trainer of the Year was selected by the Panel of
Adjudicators at the Final Presentation Seminar.
