How to Use the Jury Platform

Step 1 Dashboard

• Open Dashboard in the main navigation. The Jury Dashboard shows your evaluation progress and completed-idea count.
• Use Search ideas to find an idea by name. Combine Category, Country and Presenter Name to narrow the list. Results update automatically; presenter choices follow your category and country. Use Reset to clear the filters.
• Select an idea’s name or its action button to open the evaluation.

Step 2 Evaluating an Idea

• Read About this idea and check the country, category and presenter information below the title. Open supporting documents if a link is provided.
• The idea’s assigned Presenter Name appears automatically near the title. This information is managed by the administrator; jury members cannot change it.
• Use Previous and Next to move through all five evaluation criteria. Select a score from 1 to 5 for each criterion.
• Check the weighted result and live Score Summary as you change scores.
• On the fifth criterion, expand Evidence / notes to add notes. Notes are optional unless the field is marked required.

Step 3 Saving an Evaluation

The save buttons appear on the fifth criterion.

Save

Saves your current scores and notes as an editable draft. You stay on the evaluation page and can return to continue later.

Save & Complete

Saves this evaluation, marks it Completed and returns you to the Dashboard after successful saving. Complete all five scores and any required notes first.

Changes also autosave as drafts. Check the save message; if saving fails, stay on the page and correct the error or retry. Editing a completed evaluation makes it a draft again—use Save & Complete again before final submission.

Step 4 Ranking

• Open Ranking in the main navigation to reach My Rankings.
• Ideas are sorted from highest to lowest score separately within Green Idea Concept and Green Idea Advanced. Completed evaluations receive ranks; drafts remain unranked.
• These rankings use your individual jury scores. They are not official final competition results and may change as you complete more evaluations.

Step 5 Review My Scorecard

• Open Review in the main navigation to reach Review My Scorecard.
• Check the completed-evaluation count and remaining evaluations. Review the scores, presenter details and evaluation status in the Scorecard checklist.
• Use Edit to return to an evaluation while your scorecard is editable. Complete it again after making changes.
• Check for Ready to submit. All required evaluations must be completed; saving full scores as a draft does not mark an evaluation complete.

Step 6 Submitting the Final Scorecard

• Verify that every idea is marked Completed and review your final scorecard.
• When enabled, click Submit Final Scorecard. In the confirmation dialog, choose Submit Scorecard to submit or Cancel to return to review.

After final submission: your evaluations are read-only. You can still view them, but editing is enabled only if an administrator reopens your scorecard.
