Don’t Forget WikonnecT — The WikonnecT Champion Awards are selected by CSC based on individual and company usage and contributions to WikonnecT. If you are not already contributing to WikonnecT, it’s time to get started.

• An individual award recognizes the person who most effectively and enthusiastically embraced the collaborative spirit of WikonnecT by contributing to the ongoing community conversation in WikonnecT postings.
• A group award honors the company that has made the best use of WikonnecT’s collaborative features. This award will factor in the percentage of company employees that access WikonnecT data, the percentage that post to WikonnecT, and the company’s use of one or more WikonnecT Project Communities.
