The Council of Northern California Philatelic Societies Judge Accreditation Program is just one of the many ways the CNCPS supports exhibiting in Northern California. The CNCPS has a long tradition of training judges for local and regional shows.
The goal of the CNCPS judge is twofold:
- Provide fair and objective assessment of exhibits and
- Encourage and support the development of exhibiting at the local and regional level.
The below list includes CNCPS accredited judges and APS accredited judges who support local regional exhibitions. We thank our Judges Emeritus, who are no longer active, for their many years of devotion to the philatelic community.
