HOW TO ENTER THE FEM EMMAS (Expatriate Management & Mobility Awards)

We have now moved over to a new platform to make the EMMAs entry and Summit registration process easier than ever for you. 

If you've entered before, your old login won't work - but don't worry - it's quick and easy to create a new one and the new system is much friendlier to use.

Just go to our page where you can select your categories and get started then:

1. Create an account 

2. Add your EMMAs entry and register for the Summit 

3. Receive your confirmation and attend! 

Here, we have created a how-to-enter guide to make the process even easier for you. 

1. Get started

The easiest way to get started is to register for the EMMAs online. The registration form is where you can select which categories you’d like to enter. We only accept a limited number of entries per category so prompt registration is always recommended! Remember, you can enter more than one category.

2. Prepare for your entry

Before you start your entry, have a think about what the judges are looking for. 

Along with an overall review of the submission as a whole, each entry is judged using a fairly complex system of scoring against the following criteria, so always keep these points in mind:

• Innovation
• Strategy
• Results
• Impact of the work

3. Analyze the question carefully

Before you begin writing, make sure that you read the questions carefully. It might help to underline the key points later. Review your answers to ensure that you are addressing those specific issues.

TOP TIP: When putting your entry together, it’s a good idea to follow the flow of the entry criteria. It will also make it easier for the judges to follow.  

4. Stick to the rules

Criteria for entries:

• Make a clear statement indicating why the individual, team or company should win the EMMA for the category, making clear the organisational benefits driven by the team/individual concerned.
• Give examples of how the team/individual has impacted the overall business priorities of their employers or clients, any benefits to the assignees and any obstacles overcome, providing clear demonstrable results.
• Show clear evidence of any innovations, effective deployment of resources or improvement in cost management.
• Explain the longer term impact, lessons learned and how any improved methods have been introduced to other parts of the business or other clients.
• Include details of up to 3 pieces of supporting material (see below for guidelines of what to provide).
