Work Plan

HOME > Enterbreadcrumb separatorHow To Create Your Entrybreadcrumb separatorWork Plan

The work plan is an executive summary of your communication strategy and MUST be used for entries in Divisions 1, 2, and 3. It can be no more than four pages. Edit your plan to ensure it’s clear and concise. Bullets, tables and lists might help you with saving space.

The work plan MUST be submitted along with your work samples in order to be considered. Entries missing the work plan will be disqualified.

Do evaluators really pay attention to details such as the permitted font size and the length of the work plan?

  • Yes they do! Entrants are allowed four pages for work plans across Divisions 1–3. For Division 4, entrants must fully complete the brief entry form. Margins must be at least 0.5 inch or 1.27 centimeters on all sides using the standard paper size (8.5” x 11”), and fonts may be no smaller than 10 points Arial. Work plans exceeding the maximum length will be disqualified.
