Question Title

* 23. Awards Process - Planning for the Future

The 2016 Regional Tourism Awards saw a very significant change to the entry and judging process.  The new process provided a much easier entry process and the judges decisions were based predominantly on site visits and inspections which were completed anonymously.

The Judging Company have made a series of recommendations. We would welcome your feedback on these:

  Strongly Agree Agree Neutral Disagree Strongly Disagree N/A
Award entry process to be kept to a minimum for entrants
Site Visits to be the predominant form of judging and to keep where practical anonymous
Awards entries to be sought earlier in the year to allow for judging of businesses that do not operate year round (calendar year vs. financial year)
Events to be asked to nominate in advance of their event so independent judges can review the event as it happens
Entry criteria to be reviewed and shared with all businesses

Question Title

* 24. Do you have any further feedback in regard to the process of the Cradle Coast Regional Tourism Awards (e.g. entry process, structure of award categories, timing, submission requirements, judging process, presentations or the dinner)?

This information will be used by Cradle Coast Tourism for future event planning. Thank you for taking the time to complete this survey and for your attendance at the 2016 QantasLink Cradle Coast Regional Tourism Forum.
