This year we’re inviting Northeast Ohio students to design the poster. We’ll pick a winning design and award the designer a $2,000 scholarship. NorthCoast 99 is an annual recognition program that honors 99 great workplaces for top talent in Northeast Ohio. The program was developed and is presented by the ERC. Since 1999 the program has recognized over 300 organizations for their ability to maintain great workplaces that support the attraction, retention, and motivation of Top Performers. This year’s theme, Pioneer and Persevere, reflects the challenging business environment that organizations faced over the past year. This year’s NorthCoast 99 organizations overcame extraordinary obstacles to sustain and grow great workplaces in Northeast Ohio. They took risks, met challenges head on, handled tough decisions with poise and tenacity, and persevered through difficult economic times. At the root of their success is the people that make up their organizations. The people that stepped forward as leaders to make tough decisions, focus on efficiency, save jobs, and make their companies a better place to work. This contest is open to any student currently enrolled at a Northeast Ohio high school or college (including community colleges and vocational schools).]]></description><pubDate>Wed, 10 Jun 2009 03:00:00 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.graphiccompetitions.com/graphic-design/northcoast-99-poster-design-contest/</link><guid>http://www.graphiccompetitions.com/graphic-design/northcoast-99-poster-design-contest/</guid><category>graphic-design</category></item><item><title><![CDATA[SwishSwosh T-shirt Design Competition]]></title><description><![CDATA[Graphic designers, fashion gurus and people with an artistic flair, SwishSwosh will reward your talent.
