CCA Communications Contest

Get ready to submit your best examples of writing, photography, publications, and programs and projects to the annual CCA Communications Contest.

Here’s a quick tutorial to show how easy it is to submit an entry.

The contest allows you to demonstrate your knowledge, expertise, and skills among a highly respected group of cooperative peers. Noted professionals will critique your entries and select winners in a blind judging process. Outstanding communicators will be recognized during the annual CCA Institute. In addition, contest participants will receive valuable feedback and benefit from the chance to view others’ work in an online “Winners Showcase” on the CCA website.

To be best prepared for your entries, review the contest brochure here. Once you review the requirements for the categories, create a folder on your computer to prepare all entry files accordingly. Be aware of any entries that may require mailing and have those hard copies available when you print the packing slip.

There are more than 50 communication and marketing categories available for entry. Go to Cooperative Communicators Association (awardsplatform.com) to submit your entries.
