What is the STC Competition?
The STC competition recognises individuals and groups for excellence in
technical communication based on entries in 3 categories. The competition is
a great way to get feed-back on your work from an expert judging panel of
technical communication peers.
STC competitions are held regionally and internationally.
STC Australia is hosting competitions in 3 categories:
Technical publications
Technical art
Online communication
Entries of an appropriate standard are entered in the STC International
Competition, and Australian entries have won awards in this competition in
past years. In last year's competition, ASIC received a distinguished award
for one entry and an excellence award for the other.
Each entrant receives a comprehensive judgement, and justification for the
award level, from each of the 3 judges on the category panel.
Awards
Best of Show awarded to one entry in each competition category

Winners of the Distinguished and Best of Show award qualify for the

of the Distinguished and Best of Show awards who want to enter the
international STC competition.

established the Jill Nicholson Award to be awarded to the winner/outstanding
entry in the Australian competition. The award is a $100 AUD voucher from
