Digital Government Community Awards 2022: participation guidelines
These guidelines apply to all award categories.
For each category, nominations will be narrowed down to a shortlist of 3 nominees and then a winner. The contact person identified in the nomination package will be informed if their nomination is shortlisted. Individuals who submitted a nomination that is short-listed will be invited to submit a 2-minute video about the individual or team. Only shortlisted nomination will require a video.
These videos will be used for the 2022 awards ceremony and a disclaimer will need to be signed and returned to the Chief Information Officer Branch, Committee Secretariat, at imitawardnominations-nominationsdesprixgiti@tbs-sct.gc.ca.
