Memcom 2005 encompassed four categories of award, acknowledging high quality promotion by a membership organisation.
The awards - website, conference promotion, magazine/newsletter and recruitment pack - were open to thousands of membership-based organisations like TRADA.
The Awards, announced during the fifth MemCom 2005 Conference, were developed to focus on key deliverable elements of marketing and communications programmes.
Chairman of the Conference, Tom Brannan, a former elected chairman of the Chartered Institute of Marketing, commended the quality of entry for the 2005 awards.
The askTRADA website was praised by the judges' panel for its 'great range of content that was both compelling and easy to use' and contained 'a great supplier directory'.
Mr Vibert said: 'We were delighted to receive the award.
The askTRADA website has gone from strength to strength and has without doubt been instrumental in increasing TRADA membership in the past year.' TRADA signed up more than 300 new Corporate and Professional Members in 2004, exceeding by 50% its target for the year.
More than 29,000 architects, engineers and other construction industry professionals have signed up as Registered Users since January last year For more information about TRADA visit www.asktrada.co.uk.
