ACTA is now accepting nominations for the annual ACTA Awards which will be awarded during the ACTA 2023 Eastern Canada Travel Industry Summit taking place in September in Toronto.

The advisor organization has added a new award this year – the CTC/CTM Lifetime Achievement Award. The new honour will celebrate an exceptional Certified Travel Counsellor (CTC) or Certified Travel Manager (CTM), who has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to lifelong learning and continuously expanding their knowledge of the travel industry and client service excellence.

The ACTA Awards recognize ACTA members who have proven their excellence across a broad range of categories and recipients will be selected by a panel of jurors appointed by ACTA. Anyone is welcome to make a nomination, but nominees must be ACTA members. Nominations close on Friday, June 23.

The six ACTA Awards categories are:

Leisure Travel Agent Award

Corporate Travel Agent Award

Tomorrow’s Leader Award

Ches Chard Education Award

Gerald Heifetz Advocacy Award

CTC/CTM Lifetime Achievement Award

Criteria for each can be found at ACTA Awards – ACTA Events.

Businesses or individuals are encouraged to nominate themselves or others for consideration using the Nomination Form. A brief biography is required to support the nomination in order to demonstrate how the nominee meets the criteria for the award. Interested parties can email Deanne Mills at actaawards@acta.ca with any questions.
