At the International Councilors Meeting (now called General Assembly) it was decided how many awards should be presented at the next Congress and for which activities the awards should be designated. Initially, JCI presented just two awards—the New Zealand Award for Outstanding National Work and the Unit (LOM) Membership Extension Award presented by Canada. At the VI JCI World Congress held in 1951 in Montreal, Canada, the Awards Commission presented a program with more specific rules for qualifications. Also, an awards judging panel was mentioned for the first time. The year 1954 brought big changes and new ideas. From that time on, there has been a structured awards program similar to today’s. JCI introduced the criteria for judging the awards and the grouping of awards into categories for individual, chapter and national members. During this year, a certificate of merit was presented for the first time, recognizing that sometimes more than one entry could be worthy of merit. The awards program for 1955–1956 included guidelines on the preparation of an awards entry. Those guidelines were different from the present ones, although there were similarities. They included the following recommendations: “BLUNDERS TO AVOID: • • • • Don’t use airbrush or artwork of any kind. Don’t pad scrapbooks. Don’t mislead. Don’t risk even a minor violation of the rules.” From the early days of the JCI awards program, General Assembly had the final say on the decisions of the awards judges. This procedure was in effect until 1972, when it was amended as follows: “The decision of the judges will be final, and correspondence regarding their decisions will not be considered.” The presentation of the awards at Congress has always been a highlight, although the ceremony has undergone some changes. In the years 1961–1974, PepsiCo International sponsored the awards banquet and a major JCI program during the same period. From 1975 on, it became the responsibility of the Congress Organizing Committee to provide for an Awards Ceremony. In 1947 only two awards were presented; by 1991 the number of awards presented to Individuals, LOMs and NOMs had risen to 40. This figure is not surprising considering that the organization has more than 300,000 individual members in almost 9,000 chapters in 100 national organizations. RULES FOR JCI AWARDS Introduction The following provisions reproduced from the JCI Constitution and Policy Manual govern the awards program. BYLAW 18-4. AWARDS: SECTION 1. FUNCTION: To recognize and honor outstanding achievement in the fulfillment of the purposes of Junior Chamber by NOMs, LOMs or Individual Members. SECTION 2. DEVELOPMENT: The development of international awards shall be initiated by the Secretary General who shall ensure their relevance to the Areas of Opportunity and to the membership development of NOMs and LOMs. SECTION 3. NEW AWARDS AND AWARD CHANGES: The adoption of new awards, of substitutions or of changes in the award descriptions shall require a two-thirds (2/3) vote of General Assembly. SECTION 4. AWARDS JUDGING AT CONGRESS: a. Each NOM shall be entitled to designate up to three (3) members to serve at the awards judging sessions at Congress. The Executive Committee shall appoint an awards judging panel from the names so designated by their NOMs, and each member of that panel shall have one (1) vote. b. In case the Executive Committee feels that the number of names received is not sufficient to constitute the panel, it may add more members. However, there shall not be more than three (3) members from one NOM. c. Upon completion of judging, the awards judges shall review the entry rules and related matters and propose desirable changes to the Board of Directors at their post-Congress meeting. The Board may adopt these proposals by a simple majority. SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY: Only NOMs and members of NOMs in good standing shall be eligible to submit entries for awards. 1. TYPES OF AWARDS There are three classifications of JCI awards: GROUP I : Awards to Individual Members GROUP II : Awards to National Organization Members (NOMs) GROUP III : Awards to Local Organization Members (LOMs). 2. ELIGIBILITY All JCI NOMs and LOMs may submit entries for JCI awards subject to the following provisions: a. The NOM must have met its financial obligations and be eligible to vote at the Congress where the awards entry is being submitted. b. Every NOM submitting awards entries and having more than ten of its members attending the World Congress must provide a minimum of one awards judge. Furthermore, NOMs submitting 20 or more awards entries must furnish a minimum of two judges, and NOMs submitting 40 or more entries must ii furnish three judges. All awards judges must be nominated before the World Congress. Normally, failure by any NOM to appoint at least one awards judge before World Congress will result in the automatic issuance of penalty points to all awards entries submitted from that NOM. However, the JCI President or awards chairman may grant a dispensation. c. All Group III entry forms (from LOMs) should contain a certification by the NOM president that the LOM is a member in good standing and that it has been included in the declaration of membership last submitted to JCI. 3. WHO MAY SUBMIT ENTRIES Submit entries as follows: a. GROUP I: By a LOM (with the certification of the NOM) or by a NOM directly. b. GROUP II: By a NOM only and subject to the following: i. Only one participating NOM may submit an entry for an award for joint projects between two or more NOMs. ii. A NOM may submit only one entry for each Group II award. iii. A NOM may not submit the same project for more than one award. c. GROUP III: By a LOM (with the certification of its NOM) and subject to the following provisions: i. Only one participating LOM, of the same or different NOMs, may submit an entry for an award for joint projects between two or more LOMs. ii. A LOM may submit only one entry for each award. iii. A LOM may not submit the same project for more than one award. iv. Any number of LOMs from one NOM can submit entries for the same Group III award. v. A NOM with only one LOM is eligible to submit a project for Group III awards. However, a LOM may not submit the same project for both Group II and Group III awards. 4. AWARD-YEAR PERIOD OF PROJECT OR ACTIVITY These regulations apply: a. The awards year extends from November 1 in the year of the preceding World Congress to October 31 in the year of the current World Congress. b. NOMs and LOMs must complete any program or project submitted for an award during the current award year. c. For continuing programs and projects, most of the activity should have taken place during this period. d. For the Outstanding LOM President Award, the president’s year of office should be completed in the award year. iii 5. SUBMITTING AN AWARD ENTRY a. The Entry Form It is not necessary to submit an entry form for JCI awards before Congress. However, whether hand carried or mailed, an official JCI awards entry form must arrive at the Congress by 10:00 a.m. on the first day of the awards judging sessions. The awards entry form is in this Awards Manual. The four types of forms are: Group I: Group II: Group III: Group III—Special: For Individuals For NOMs For LOMs For Outstanding LOM of the World and Outstanding New LOM of the World awards. Entrants should submit forms in one of the four correspondence languages of JCI—English, Japanese, Spanish, or French. The entry form should have no attachments; the scrapbook should contain all supporting material. Complete the entry form in quintuplicate (five copies). Submit these copies as follows: • Attach one copy as the first page of the scrapbook. • Put four copies in an envelope, and attach it to the inside front cover of the scrapbook. The official entry form becomes page one of the scrapbook (whatever the number of pages to the entry form). Judges will not consider the entry form as a multiple-page document in support of the scrapbook. Note: Since the awards judges review entry forms first, it is vital that these forms are filled out correctly and completely. Mistakes or missing information on the entry form will result in penalty points despite the information contained in the scrapbook. b. The Scrapbook The scrapbook is a notebook or album containing documentary and supportive evidence of the project activity for review by the judges. The following rules govern the preparation and submission of scrapbooks: i. Supportive evidence such as a scrapbook must substantiate every awards entry. See the sample shown under “Technical Advice for JCI Awards Entries.” ii. Outside dimensions of a scrapbook must not exceed 11" x 14" (28 cm x 35.5 cm). iii. The maximum number of pages per scrapbook shall be as follows: Group I: 25 pages iv Group II: 30 pages Group III: 30 pages Group III—Special: Outstanding LOM of the World and Outstanding New LOM of the World Awards: 40 pages. A page is one side of a sheet of paper; it is necessary to number each page of the scrapbook. The maximum size of a page should be the size of the scrapbook (11" x 14" or 28 cm x 35.5 cm). No foldout pages are acceptable. iv. Entrants may include multiple-page documents, i.e., magazines, bulletins, manuals, newsletters, any one of which will count as one page. However, rules allow for not more than the following number of multiple-page documents per scrapbook: Group I: Group II: Group III: Up to 5 multiple-page documents Up to 7 multiple-page documents Up to 7 multiple-page documents. In case of a dispute, it will be the responsibility of the judge and the awards chairman to decide what defines one multiple page. Note: Entrants may not include audiovisual material for consideration in the judging process unless they have been entered for the Audiovisual Presentation Award. v. Entrants should number each page of the scrapbook and use the first page for the entry form. Number each multiple page, i.e., Multiple Page No. 1, Multiple Page No. 2, etc., besides the total page numbers. vi. Attach a label to the front cover of the scrapbook clearly showing the following: • • • • vii. Name of submitting NOM (Groups I and II) Name of submitting LOM and its NOM (Groups I and III) Name and Group number of award Year and venue of Congress. Have scrapbooks include a color photograph depicting the project activity. On the back of the photograph show the name of the submitting NOM or LOM (for Group II or Group III awards) or the individual (for Group I awards). Place the photograph in a sealed envelope, and firmly attach to the inside back cover of the scrapbook. JCI may use the materials, and they will not be returned. viii. Hand carry the scrapbooks to the Congress and deposit at the appropriate receiving point. If this is not possible, send the scrapbook to the address of the Congress Director. Mark the parcel “AWARD ENTRY.” Remember: whether hand carried or mailed, the scrapbook must arrive by 10:00 a.m. on the first day of the awards judging sessions. Note: Please do not send scrapbooks to the JCI WHQ, as JCI cannot be responsible for ensuring that they are taken to the Congress. ix. Entrants must pick up scrapbooks Thursday and Friday of Congress Week. Any scrapbooks not retrieved by the end of the Congress will be disposed of after that. v x. If the supportive material is not in one of the correspondence languages (English, Spanish, French, Japanese), please attach a summary in at least one of these four languages, preferably one in English since most judges speak English. 6. JUDGING a. Composition of Judging Panel: i. Each NOM in good standing at the opening of General Assembly Session 1 may submit up to three nominees to serve on the panel of judges. Ideally, nominees should have previous experience preparing scrapbooks or previous judging experience at the NOM level. ii. The Executive Committee will appoint the judges from the list of nominees. They will also select from a list of others considered suitable at the Executive Committee Meeting immediately preceding Congress. iii. The Executive Committee will appoint a chairman for the judging panel who must be a current member of the JCI Board of Directors. iv. The chairman may conduct the judging using subcommittees of judges and distributing awards among them. Each subcommittee should have a minimum of five members. b. Judging Procedures: i. The chairman and each member of the panel of judges will have one vote. A simple majority will determine all decisions. ii. If the panel of judges is divided into subcommittees for judging awards, the decisions of such subcommittees will represent the decisions of the entire panel. iii. A member of the panel of subcommittees shall not participate in judging any award if entries from his NOM or LOM are among the entries for it. iv. The judges have the authority to alter the classification of any awards entry if they find that the entry is in an incorrect classification. v. Each subcommittee will judge several awards. The chairman will consider the number of entries per award and the workload involved in making such allocations. Unless excused by the awards chairman, every member of the subcommittee must review every entry in the awards categories assigned to the subcommittee. vi. Each panel of judges will mark scores following criteria specified for each award. vii. If any entry does not conform to the rules listed in this manual, it will suffer a loss of points as a penalty. Submissions are initially checked according to the entry form only. viii Ten points over the standard 100 points will be at the discretion of the judges for evaluating the “Overall Impression of the Project.” This applies to Group II and Group III entries only. Selection of the winners will employ a preferential ranking system that clarifies the best project ix. vi or program among entries on the judges’ tally sheet. x. The judging panel is not obliged to grant an award if it feels after consultation with the awards chairman that entries of sufficient merit have not been received. xi. If an entry deserves special recognition, it can receive a certificate of merit only after another entry has received the award for that category. xii. Members of the panel of judges shall keep results secret until they are announced at the official Awards Ceremony. The element of surprise is essential. xiii. Decisions of the panel of judges shall be final and binding, and there will be no appeals regarding these decisions. xiv. Entries from NOMs not in good standing on the date of General Assembly 1 of the current Congress will not qualify. xv. The awards chairman shall convene a special subcommittee of the most experienced members on the awards judging panel to judge all Group I categories. In selecting the judges for this subcommittee, the awards chairman shall earnestly consider judges who have held local and/or national Junior Chamber office. c. General Violations The awards judging panel may assess penalty points for the following violations: i. Oversized scrapbook (1 to 5 points) ii. No label on the front cover (1 to 5 points) iii. Excess number of pages in the scrapbook (5 points for each page over the maximum allowed) iv. v. Excess number of multiple-page documents in the scrapbook (5 points for each document over the maximum allowed) Wrong entry form used (1 to 5 points) vi. Inadequate use of entry form (1 to 5 points) vii. Requirements to appoint and furnish awards judges not met by NOM. d. Report of the Awards Judging The awards chairman shall submit the following two reports to JCI: i. Upon completion of the judging, the chairman shall submit a short, handwritten report to the Secretary General including: (a) The names of all judges and their NOMs. (b) The results of the judging arranged in the same format and order as the awards appear in the vii Awards Manual. A clear listing of the Awards is important. ii. The chairman shall submit a report on the awards judging to the Secretary General within 30 days of completion of the JCI World Congress. It should contain: (a) Recommendations from the awards judging panel including a review of the entry forms, awards judging procedures, scrapbooks, logistics, etc. (b) List of awards winners. (c) Any other relevant statistics on the awards judging for future reference. (d) Recommendations and comments on the awards judging and the Awards Ceremony. viii TECHNICAL ADVICE FOR JCI AWARDS ENTRIES GUIDELINES There is no need for instruction on how to win an award trophy; the activity itself decides this. However, there are good methods for effectively showing the awards judges how well your activity worked and what it was all about. Knowledge of the following guidelines should assist in a better preparation of JCI awards entries: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Show evidence of activities. Have knowledge of the awards program. Make a proper selection of the awards category to enter. Carefully prepare the entry form. Scrapbook: • Follow the suggestions for making up a scrapbook. • Study the explanation of terms used in judging. • Abide by the regulations for the scrapbook. 1. EVIDENCE OF ACTIVITIES An awards entry consists of an entry form and a scrapbook. The entry form is to describe briefly the activities undertaken by the chapter, national organization, or individual member; the scrapbook is a notebook or album containing documentary and supportive evidence of the project activity. There should be no discrepancies between the information on the entry form and in the scrapbook. Meeting minutes, promotional publications, photographs, letters, etc., are good supporting evidence, and too few of these could produce a negative effect on the judging procedure. Keeping good records throughout a project will pay off when preparing an awards scrapbook. It might even be worth considering record keeping as a single project. Such records would also be very useful for the next year’s LOM and NOM officers. 2. KNOWLEDGE OF THE AWARDS PROGRAM An awards program consists of various components including a list of awards, criteria for judging, entry rules, and judging procedures. Each of these is an important factor in selecting the right award in which to submit the project and in preparing entry documents. Therefore, any applicant for the awards program should become familiar with every aspect of the Awards Manual. Even if you have much experience in awards procedures, you should be aware that some rules or other factors might change from year to year. Read it annually and stay familiar with the program. 3. SELECTION OF THE AWARD CATEGORY TO ENTER Each award has its own criteria for judging. It is therefore very important to select the right award, as you may register for one award only. For example, a community activity has several possibilities. A charity concert for disabled children may be eligible for the Community Development Award, or the Civic Involvement Program Award. It might also qualify for the Youth Activities Award, the Fund-Raising Project Award or the Public Relations Award. However, the rules stipulate that an applicant must select a single award in which to enter that project or ix program. Read carefully the judging criteria for all related awards. Decide in which award your project has the greatest likelihood of obtaining the highest score. For instance, suppose a charity concert for children did not receive the number of attendees expected but did raise good public relations through newspapers, radio and TV. The right award to enter for this project would be the Public Relations Award. Applicants should select the most suitable award to compete with other entries. In addition, it is important to review the backup materials, because the entry documents have to show how the project worked for public relations. Let’s presume that the backup material is too brief in explaining the entry’s relevance to public relations. On the other hand, different backup shows how members effectively raised a great deal of money. The right award to enter may then be the Fund-Raising Project Award. Supportive evidence is an important factor in selecting the right award to enter. 4. ENTRY FORMS All applicants have to use the official JCI entry form for the awards program. Obtain this year’s copy, and do not use an old form; awards judges need uniformity of entries to make fair evaluations. As space on the entry form is limited, it makes sense to duplicate the entry form before filling it out. Then a participant can make several attempts to ensure that the form presents the judges with concise, definitive information. The entry form is designed for appraisal by the awards judging panel, so do not write “see scrapbook” without a proper explanation on the entry form itself. The entry form is one important part of the mandatory materials required by the awards judging panel. It should contain a complete outline of the program or project. Awards judges will review the details of the scrapbook after reading the entry form. 5. SCRAPBOOK The panel of judges will review all entries through the entry form and scrapbook. An entry form gives an outline of the activity, and the scrapbook provides supportive evidence to the information on the entry form. Awards judges must score each entry according to criteria for judging. Therefore, prepare your scrapbook for the convenience of the awards judges in evaluating your entry based on their criteria. The following are suggestions for making up a scrapbook: a. Follow rigidly the rules of the awards program. b. Review the judging criteria, the project concerned and the scrapbook material available. Some projects may be eligible for more than one category, so enter the category in which you are likely to score the highest. Remember that the awards judging panel has the right to reclassify your entry if it believes the award is not in an appropriate category. Finally, check that your entry form shows the correct award and reference number. c. For your consideration, the following points in each category could be assumed for a given award: x Planning, execution and finance Participation Benefit to LOM Benefit to community 25% 25% 25% 25% For example, let’s say the rules allow 30 pages for this awards entry. Page 1 must be an entry form; page 2 should be an index. Therefore, you are left with 28 pages to fill. Decide the number of pages for each category. With four categories, 25 percent of the points means seven pages per category. Similarly, if 50 percent of the points goes to Finance, 14 pages should go to Finance. d. Sort your materials under the various categories, but do not make any final decision. e. Get 30 pieces of paper and number them from 1 to 30. On page 1 write “Entry Form”; page 2, “Index”; and on pages 3 to 9 inclusive, mark what you should include on each page for “Planning,” “Execution” and “Finance.” For example, page 3, “Survey”; page 4, “Survey Results”; etc. f. On pages 10 to 16, carry out the same exercise for “Participation” and so on until you have 30 loose sheets marked up as the basis of the scrapbook under each heading, seven pages per category. g. The 30 pages read in sequence should tell the project’s story. If not, you have either failed to include the correct material, or your project record keeping was inadequate. If the former is true, put in appropriate material for the category concerned; if the latter is accurate, make an effort to present the awards judges with any available documentation. h. Make any necessary changes to the photocopy entry form, and mock-up the scrapbook before completing the originals. Only when you are completely satisfied that your entry projects a strong and complete story should you start to work on the originals. i. Type up an index with headings and subheadings, for example: Entry form Index Planning, execution and finance Survey Survey results j. page 1 page 2 page 3-9 page 3 page 4 Use colored pencils or graphics to highlight any major points in your material, remembering that too much highlighting is worse than none at all. There are no extra points for the attractiveness of the scrapbook, but good layout and visuals can make your entry easier to follow. k. Use newspaper clippings, photos, etc., but remember it is more important to include a letter of congratulations from the Mayor than one from your LOM president, or a factual newspaper clipping rather than a beautifully typed summary. Also remember the judges are not really interested in seeing a picture of your project team, but they would be most interested to know how many were involved, and how much work they did. Minutes of meetings are surely a strong, persuasive piece of supporting material, too. l. When your entry form and scrapbook are complete, review again and change if necessary. Ask others outside the project for their opinions, as they are likely to be more objective than you. m. Remember to include in your scrapbook a color photograph depicting the project activity and, on the xi reverse side, the name of the submitting NOM or LOM (for Group II or Group III) or Individual (for Group I) awards. Place in a sealed envelope and attach to the inside back cover of the scrapbook. n. Finally, remember that the awards program is a competition, and there can be only one winner. If you feel that you have prepared a fine entry and the entry does not win, be happy in the knowledge that your project truly had a positive impact. The competition aspect serves the purpose to increase the total standards of project activity within the entire organization. EXPLANATION OF TERMS USED IN JUDGING: • General planning, execution and finance These include the outline and general planning of the project, its objectives, how the committees were formed, and the various steps for completion. It also includes financial information. • Participation This embraces the percentage of a chapter’s active members compared to the total membership and the degree of non-Junior Chamber participation. • Benefit to community This is decided by the judges, who determine how much the project helped the community. • Benefit to organization This is determined by the judges, who evaluate how the project helped Junior Chamber internationally or locally. The entry should show how the project gave leadership training and offered opportunities for self-development to members. • Continuity This is evaluated by the judges, who examine the length and/or frequency of the project. xii I.1 SENATOR OF THE YEAR AWARD CÁMARA JÚNIOR DE COLOMBIA MEDAL - Presented by Cámara Júnior de Colombia A silver medal in recognition of outstanding personal contribution and achievement is awarded to a JCI Senator beyond the age limit for Junior Chamber membership whose activities during the current JCI award year and since becoming a Senator have furthered the interests of the Junior Chamber movement.
