ARA Recognises Increasing Importance of Online Reporting

Recognising the shift from traditional hard copy reports to online reporting, Entrants in the 2009 Communication Award can choose to enter either a hard copy or online version of their annual report.

These changes are being introduced progressively (last year the Electronic Reporting Award was created) to examine the different processes involved in judging online reports.

Chairman of the ARA Awards Committee, Arthur Delbridge AM said, "The ARA has been acutely aware of the rapidly growing trend towards electronic annual reports for some time". He added, "There is a need for clear leadership by the ARA to establish benchmarking standards for this form of stakeholder communication".
