Need volunteer judges for VIEC Awards program
The USMCCCA is once again looking for experienced civilians and veterans that can act as judges for this year’s Visual Information and Excellence in Communication (VIEC) Awards program.
Judging will take place from March 01 – March 21 2021.
All judging will be remote via a web-based platform (DIVIDS) and we will work to distribute the categories more evenly this year so you don’t have judging fatigue. Judging occurs personally on your own time by viewing and scoring directly on the back side of DVIDS. They would be assigned one or a few categories depending on their specialty, time available and size of category.
