TARA Awards categories are reviewed every year by the Senior Executive team, to determine the direction of the categories. Based on this review, and our rates of submission for past categories, this year’s categories were determined.

Judging criteria varies by award. The judges will not be considering any material that is not your own or that was not created by RTA students.
