Time is running out for NTIA nominees in select categories to finalise their submissions before the portal closes at 11.59pm (AEST) on July 1, with finalists to be announced in early August.
The submission process is the chance for nominees to demonstrate their achievements over the last 12 months and authentically write or speak about their passion for the travel industry.
For categories requiring a submission, submitting via the portal is essential for nominees to be in the running to become an NTIA finalist and proceed for a chance to win a prestigious NTIA.
All submissions will be scored by an independent assessor, with the top five nominees in each category proceeding as finalists.
Independent assessors are used to ensure that judging is robust, rigorous and free of potential bias.
Finalists will attend a virtual interview with a panel of NTIA industry judges, with winners revealed at The Crown in Melbourne on October 10.
