Nominations are now open for ACTA's annual awards which will be handed out during the ACTA 2023 Eastern Canada Travel Industry Summit taking place in September in Toronto.

New this year will be the the CTC/CTM Lifetime Achievement Award which will honour 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.

Anyone can nominate a person, but nominees must be ACTA members. Nominations will close on Friday, June 23, 2023.

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.

The six ACTA Awards categories are:

- Leisure Travel Agent Award

- Corporate Travel Agent Award

- Tomorrow’s Leader Award

- CTC/CTM Lifetime Achievement Award

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