The Speech Contest Process:
Step 1: Sign up - You have until the end of October to register as a participant).
Step 2: Visit the Workshops - Three workshops will take place in November to help you learn how to write, edit and deliver your speech. Workshops are not compulsory, but highly recommended.
Step 3: Submit a video for the preliminaries - Workshop 3 will include instructions on how to shoot and upload a video of your speech. During the preliminaries, a group of judges will watch the pre-recorded videos and determine six finalists for the final live event.
Step 4: Deliver your speech in front of a live audience - After delivering your speech, a score will be awarded by six judges based on the judging criteria. Audience members will also have a chance to vote for their favourite speech, and the combined scores of judges and audience members will help decide the eventual winner. Final results and winners will be declared during the live event, and certificates and prizes will be awarded shortly afterwards.
