North AmericaAPIRS - AP Rating IndexThe fundamental difference with APIRS 'Certified' or 'Ranked' Awards Programs is that they all will provide - Notification on Receipt, Notification on Conclusion and Quality Feedback to the Applicant. This same level of service is provided by APIRS to all of their AP applicants. Our intention is to provide a place where a governing body could certify any AP without having to be rated in the traditional manner. We discovered that there are many very good AP's who do not wish to be rated due to any variety of reasons (some of whom could be if they wished be rated at high levels with many of the current indexes including the APIRS Index). It is our hope that these AP's will discover APIRS and embrace the APIRS Certified membership. Of course the more time-honoured ranking system of 3 to 6 also forms an integral part of APIRS as well as our own Plus rating for years of dedicated service to the awards community. All APIRS AP's meet or exceed a level of competency that is posted in our basic criteria and not have any of the posted disqualifying components within their AP.090305130138605/03/09

North AmericaChameleon's Eye Award ProgramThe purpose of this award is to recognize sites that present information in a manner that educates as well as entertains. The Chameleon's Eye Award was created in August 2003. Chameleons have one of the most sophisticated eyes in the animal kingdom. They are described as binocular (each eye moves independently of the other) and are probably the chameleon's greatest and most important sense. Combined they provide nearly 360 degree vision without turning the head, and allow the chameleon to see in front of and behind him at the same time. When searching for prey, the eyes are constantly moving in independent directions. When the meal is spotted BOTH eyes lock on the target and the tongue ZAPS it with lightning speed and near perfect accuracy. If your site catches my eye, I will focus both eyes and all attention on it. I need to learn something and enjoy the presentation. 090310111207110/03/09

We are seeking websites that convey content that promotes educational theme or basis, using creativity as the avenue for delivering the message. The structure of the website must have an attractive design that promotes a pleasing stage for your content.
