Honourary Life Membership, in recognition of excellence in education at the national level, is normally meant to honor individuals who have contributed significantly to CASSA. Significant contributions at the provincial affiliate level will be considered only in light of their relevance to CASSA and its national mandate. The Executive Committee will consider the suitability of candidates based on responses to the items contained in the Nomination Form. 

Nominations will be accepted for consideration between October 1st and May 16th for awards to be presented at the Annual Leadership Conference in July each year.
