Each individual submission is scored independently by three members of our judging panel. These scores are combined to provide a total score. The shortlist will include companies/individuals that reach the minimum benchmarking score for the category entered. Feedback on written submissions is provided to entrants at the time of being notified whether or not they have been successful in reaching the shortlist.
Shortlisted entrants will then be invited to take part in a discussion with CCA Judges which provides a final score. This final score is added to the scores allocated at the written submission stage.

All shortlisted entrants will be required to participate in a verification call with a member of the Excellence Awards Committee. This provides Committee Members with the opportunity to question entrants further on their submission and offers entrants the opportunity to provide additional information in sections that may have scored lower as identified by judges in the written submission stage.
CCA or your appointed Judging Panel Member will be in touch to arrange a suitable time and date for this call.
It is preferable that a maximum of 2 participants per shortlisted entry contributes to the presentation. Where two organisations have submitted a joint application, there may be a representative from each organisation. For individual categories, nominees may have their nominator/line manager present to support them during presentation. However, this must be carried out by the nominee and the Judging Panel Member will decide if input from the nominator will be contributed to the final score.
No further input is required from entrants after this stage. Committee Members will allocate a final score, based on the presentation, which will be added to the 3 scores already allocated by judging panel members at the written submission stage. Winners will be those with the highest score in each category. Winners will then be announced at the Awards Ceremony.
The winners of CCA Women in Leadership Awards will be announced at a prestigious celebratory lunch at The Midland Hotel, Manchester on 28 November 2024.
