The judging process
The Corporate Accountant Awards program, in conjunction with event stakeholders Accounting Times, Momentum Media, and a panel of leading accounting professionals, has developed a robust awards methodology to form the backbone for assessing, analysing and benchmarking Australia’s leading professionals and teams in the corporate accounting sector.
All submissions underwent a thorough audit process, checking demographic and other information against category-eligible criteria based on the information provided in the submission.
Those submissions deemed eligible against submission criteria were reviewed and assessed by a panel of Momentum Media events and editorial team members and executives, plus industry stakeholders where required, to determine the finalists for each category.
Finalist submissions will now be delivered to a panel of respected professionals and business leaders, who assess each submission against the criteria of each award category.
The judges will score each part of the submission across the category’s criteria, giving an aggregated score. Several judges will individually assess each submission for each category, offering a blended score and assessment.
The combined judging scores for each submission for each category will be tabulated, with the highest-scoring submission deemed the winner.
