APTA Receives National Awards

APTA recently received two Association Media & Publishing (AM&P) EXCEL Awards, the largest and most prestigious award program that exclusively recognizes excellence and leadership in nonprofit association media, publishing, marketing and communications, and Passenger Transport specifically received three APEX Awards of Excellence from Communications Concepts.

AM&P’s EXCEL Awards: Passenger Transport won the gold award in the Newspaper Feature Articles category for “Pace Sets the Pace,” which examined how service, partnerships and technology keep Pace Suburban Bus, Arlington Heights, IL, efficient and growing through innovation.

The association also received AM&P’s ­silver award for its direct mail piece—the 2015 APTA ­Conference Schedule.

Passenger Transport’s three APEX Awards recognized the Jan. 13, 2014 issue, which featured information from many APTA members regarding their plans for the year ahead; “Fit for Duty,” an article in the Sept. 8, 2014, issue about employee wellness programs at the Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority and other agencies; and the special publication to celebrate 100 years of safety and security in ­recognition of APTA’s centennial anniversary of its safety and security initiative.

In addition, APTA received a “Telly” Award for its video, “The Voices for Public Transit.” APTA was selected in the political advocacy area for this national award.

 

 APTA President & CEO Michael Melaniphy and the Communications and Marketing team led by Vice President Rose Sheridan celebrate APTA's recent awards at a gala in Washington, DC.
