The Platinum Award is presented to those entries judged to be among the most outstanding entries in the competition. They are recognized for their excellence in terms of quality, creativity, and resourcefulness.
The competition has grown to perhaps the largest of its kind in the world. A look at the winners shows a range in size from individual communicators to media conglomerates and Fortune 50 companies.

The Association oversees awards and recognition programs, provides judges, and sets standards for industry excellence.
Entries are judged by senior-level, experienced professionals; they are freelancers or own their own businesses, selected based on experience and availability. All work is evaluated solely on its own quality, creativity, and resourcefulness. Judges base their decisions on learned perceptions of creative excellence.
