NCMPR rewards excellence among two-year college communicators at both the regional and national levels. On a regional level, each of NCMPR's seven districts sponsors individual awards that are tailored after the national awards. All of the awards, in their own way, say "Job well done!"
MedallionsThe district Medallion Awards are similar to the national Paragons and recognize excellence in design and communication on a regional basis at community and technical colleges.
