ACTFL Awards Program
The ACTFL Awards Program recognizes outstanding contributions to field of foreign language education. Each year, in the fall, the ACTFL President chooses chairs for each of the committees. Chairs, in turn, select additional ACTFL members to serve on the committee. Awards and nomination procedures are announced and candidates' names are solicited through announcements in ACTFL publications and through letters to ACTFL member organizations each year. The results of the selections are announced at the ACTFL Annual Meeting and in the January issue of The Language Educator.
To download the specific criteria for an individual award, please visit the committee page and download the individual award file. For complete information, download the ACTFL Handbook of Nominating Procedures provides complete information on the nomination and selection process. The Handbook also contains information and forms for nomination of candidates for President-Elect and for positions on the ACTFL Executive Council.
