ecch Case Awards are presented annually to recognise worldwide excellence in case writing and to raise the profile of the case method of learning.
Awards are made in up to nine management categories; for one overall winning case; two case writing competition categories for a case by a new author and for a newly authored case on a 'hot topic'; and to recognise the outstanding contribution of an individual associated with the case method.
