STC Carolina Chapter Competitions
Featuring competitions in our chapter since 1995!
Table of contents
STC competitions offer an excellent way for you and your team to get recognition for your technical publication, web site, help system, training, and other forms of technical communication. Each year, the STC Carolina Chapter sponsors competitions.
Carolina Chapter competitions are typically held in the fall. Judges evaluate entries against a checklist of criteria and decide whether to nominate each entry for an award. The top award winners go on to compete for Best of Show.
If your entry wins a Distinguished or Excellence award from the Carolina chapter, you may mail the entry to the STC International Summit Awards competitions held in the spring.
