Awards Dinner
By entering the awards your organisation is deemed to have accepted and agreed to be bound by the following entry criteria and terms and conditions.
Please read the list of categories available to select the awards you would like to enter. Please read the criteria carefully to ensure you have selected the correct category for your entrant.
Your entry should be evidence based and concise and you should provide evidence of targets reached if appropriate and/or achievements. For the Team and Company Awards in particular please consider:
- The background to your project/initiative (why the company/team initiative was developed, your objectives)
- How it was created/implemented
- What results it has achieved against targets and objectives
- Provide evidence of success – highlight the results – give results, compare against targets and evaluate impact on behaviour and performance
- What challenges were facing your department/organisation / what changes did you want to bring about?
The awards are free to enter and open to all contact centres based in the North of England and Scotland employing more than five staff. Organisations can enter as many categories as they wish BUT only three entries are permitted into any one category.
Any initiatives/entries submitted must have been carried out by an individual/team or contact centre from October 2023 to September 2024.
