T.E.N.'s distinguished panel of ISE(TM) North America Judges for review and
scoring. The panel of judges typically consists of previous finalists and
winners of the ISE(TM) Awards. Judges have the final approval in determining
whether an executive or project team is qualified to participate as a nominee at
either the regional or national level. Finalists and winners are not announced
publicly until the evening of the awards.
