Evaluations

The APHA encourages you to evaluate a judges' performance. The Judges Committee uses these evaluations during the review process. All positive and negative comments are welcome. The author of an evaluation will be kept confidential.

Formal complaint

To make a formal complaint against an APHA-approved judge, such complaints must be in writing, signed by the complainant, contain alleged rule violations, date and location within 60 days of the show or contest. If a grievance is filed, the procedures outlined in the disciplinary procedures would be followed. (See rules GR-070.A-K. The 2007 Rule Book is available online).

For your convenience, two evaluation forms are available for download:

• APHA Judges Evaluation Form for exhibitors (32 K PDF file).
• APHA Judges Evaluation Form for show management (32 K PDF file).
