The ORMTA has an abundance of members who dedicate much time and passion to teaching their students, helping this organization, and volunteering within their communities. It is with this spirit that the ORMTA recognizes these exceptional individuals on an annual basis with an ORMTA Contribution to Teaching Award (or OCTA).
ORMTA branches are invited to nominate one of their members for this award in any one year. The nominee must have been a member of the ORMTA or one of the other provincial Associations within the CFMTA for at least ten years (consecutively or intermittently). Further criteria to nominate colleagues are determined by the individual branches. The branch invites the nominee to the annual ORMTA Awards Presentation where they will be recognized for their achievements and receive a certificate. The nominee will also be featured in a future edition of Notes Magazine.
