Many Canadians were recognized at the 2023 ITE International Annual Meeting in Portland, including two ITE 2023 Excellence in Transportation Awards, a new ITE Honourary Member, and several achievements by Canadian members.
ITE Canada is honoured to receive the ITE International 2023 District Innovation Award for our Strategic Communications & Implementation Plan and Brand Strategy.
The District Innovation Award recognizes a District that has implemented an innovative program or activity focused on leadership or management for the District, its Sections, and its members. ITE International bestowed this honour on the Canadian District with the following in their release (PDF, 757 KB):
ITE Canada’s comprehensive communications and branding strategy is an exemplary example and should serve as an inspiration to other Districts.
