IATBLT members are invited to nominate individuals who have made outstanding and sustained contributions to the field of TBLT in practice.

The winner of the award will be presented with an award of €1000 (funded independently by the IATBLT) and a certificate at the 11th International IATBLT Conference in Groningen, The Netherlands in April 2025. Attendance to the conference is not mandatory but confirmation of in-person attendance would be greatly appreciated.

Nomination statements should be no longer than two double-spaced pages, and should provide strong grounds for the nomination by clearly describing the nominee's contributions to the field of TBLT in practice, addressing the selection criteria above.
