2022-23 SPJ Chapter Annual Report Guidelines and Submission Form
Due: July 13, 2023 • Covers period from May 1, 2022 to April 30, 2023
Offline/email alternative
As an alternative, you also may download this annual reports template file [Microsoft Word .docx format, compressed into a ZIP file], fill it out offline, and submit it via email. Because the annual reports form is a long one, you may prefer to do it this way so that you can fill it out pieces at a time and eliminate any likelihood of connection errors.
SPJ professional and student chapters are asked to report on their activities each year to satisfy SPJ bylaws and to be considered for chapter awards.
You can find the form below.
SPJ’s 12 regional coordinators use these answers to select Chapters of the Year, as well as Circle of Excellence winners. Campus chapter reports should be filled out by a chapter member, not the adviser.
Each answer under CHAPTER ACTIVITIES should be no more than 200 words. Programs should not be listed in multiple sections. Please include links or media coverage to elaborate on activities.
All annual reports should be submitted online (the form appears below) or via e-mail using the Word document (blue box, right). If you have questions about the report or cannot meet the filing deadline, contact membership, or contact your regional coordinator.
