Achievement Awards


CPAC Professional Achievement Award
The CPAC Professional Achievement Award (PAA) was established in 2009 to recognize and celebrate the achievements of immigrant professionals who have achieved significant success and outstanding status in a certain profession.
Candidates may include individuals who:
• Are Canadian citizens or permanent residents of immigrant background; and
• Have made exceptional contributions in their profession or in a professional field outside their occupation.
Nominations are encouraged from all Canadian citizens and permanent residents, across all professions and across Canada.
Nominations are reviewed by a PAA Selection Committee composed of members from the CPAC Board of Directors and the CPAC Foundation Board of Trustees. The awards are presented at the CPAC Annual Gala each year.
