Volunteer Judges
The Circle of Excellence Awards -- and all of our awards -- rely on the generosity of CASE volunteers who share their time and knowledge to help identify the best practices in educational advancement.
Want to help?
Volunteer judges dedicate hours to reviewing, scoring and commenting on entries. They then meet in person or online with other judges in the category to decide on winners. You can volunteer to help at the district, regional or global level.
Judge Coordinators take responsibility for recruiting judging panels and organizing group judging sessions. They also report the scores and prepare comments that can be shared regarding the category and its winners.
