ACTA has announced the opening of nominations for its annual awards.

Each year, ACTA presents six awards celebrating standout individuals and organizations in the Canadian travel sector.

“The ACTA awards promote excellence in our industry and are a chance to nominate those who deserve recognition,” Wendy Paradis, ACTA president stated.

Anyone within the industry can submit a nomination, but all nominees must be ACTA members. A judging panel appointed by ACTA will review the submissions.

The six categories are:

  • Leisure Travel Advisor Award
  • Corporate Travel Advisor Award
  • Tomorrow’s Leader Award
  • Ches Chard Education Award
  • Gerald Heifetz Advocacy Award
  • CTC/CTM Lifetime Achievement Award

Detailed criteria for each category can be found at actaevents.ca/actaawards-criteria.

Both individuals and businesses are welcome to nominate themselves or others using the official nomination form.

The deadline for submissions is Friday, June 13, 2025. Winners will be announced during ACTA’s September Summits in Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal.
