Judging process
Evaluation and judging takes approximately 10 weeks. The judging panel will evaluate shortlisted nominations and will determine whether the nominee is submitted to go through to the interview stage.
The shortlisted nominees will then be invited to attend an interview. The selection criteria will be used as the basis for questions that will be asked during the interview process.
Once the interview process is complete the judging panel will determine the award winner for each category. Winners will be announced at the gala dinner in September.
All nominees will be notified as to the outcome of their nomination and can request feedback.
Nominations are assessed by the Victorian Training Awards evaluation team and the relevant Regulatory bodies. The eligibility criteria will be used to evaluate and determine whether the nomination is shortlisted as eligible to go through to the next stage.
