Each Chapter Website is reviewed by the IPMS/USA Internet Coordinator for the following criteria:

  • Have promoted their Chapter in a manner that reflects credit on IPMS/USA.

  • Have demonstrated support of, and cooperation with IPMS/USA National and Regional efforts.

  • Have consistently kept page current though regular updates.

  • Maintained enhanced page appearance, content, and responsiveness

  • Maintained a minimum of advertising content.

The IPMS/USA Internet Coordinator then compiles a list of the ten most qualified Websites, which is presented to the IPMS/USA Executive Board. The winning Chapter Website is then selected by vote of the Board and Website Staff, and is announced at the IPMS/USA National Convention.
