There are three types of juries to determining
the Contest's provincial grand prizes winners:
local, regional and provincial.
If your project passes the first stage
at the local level (April 2009), your
application package will be reassessed at the second stage
or the regional level (May 2009);
Then, if applicable, it
will qualify for the third stage at the provincial level
(May 2009).
Prizes will be awarded at a gala ceremony to be held
June 18, 2009.
Applicants must be prepared for a possible interview with
the regional jury members; at the provincial level, they
are required to attend an interview with the provincial
jury members.
No jury is obligated to award all prizes if
the quality of the applications received is deemed to be
unsatisfactory or if no projects were submitted in a given
category.
The decisions made by juries may not be
appealed. The jury members are not required to forward
their comments or their completed assessment grids to
participants in non-winning projects once their analysis
is complete.
Local and regional representatives must also comply with the
confidentiality rules regarding Contest projects and participants.
