Critique & Contest


What is the Critique & Contest?

The National ACT Critique and Contest is one of the greatest benefits ACT offers its members. In addition to recognizing talent and effort, it also provides critiques from agricultural communications professionals. These individuals possess extensive experience in the field of agricultural communications and can offer advice on improving your communication skills.

Deadlines & Details

Entry deadline for the 2010 Critique and Contest is April 2, 2010. Contestants must be active, dues-paying ACT members. The results will be revealed at the Agricultural Media Summit in Minneapolis, Minn.  The Critique and Contest rules and Entry Form are available for future reference for applying in 2010.

Prizes will be awarded to category and division winners. Winners are announced at the annual National Convention. The winning entry in each category will automatically be eligible to win the Excellence Award in that division, which has a cash prize.
