CoSIDA Publications and Digital Design Contests

CoSIDA sponsors a variety of media guide/publication and digital design contests and an annual writing contest for its members, with every CoSIDA member at every level having the opportunity to receive recognition for his/her work. It is no small honor to earn an award since the judging is done by news media/communications professionals who utilize those publications in their work. There are new contests and a contest name change for 2015-16 to emphasize the digital platforms and digital/graphic design work by CoSIDA members.

The 2015-16 entry forms, contest guidelines, contest coordinator information are below. Please note that only current 2015-16 dues-paying members of CoSIDA may enter any of these contests.
