Industry Membership

TMAC Membership is renewed annually between December and February 28. 

Industry members include representatives of tourist boards, airlines, hotel companies, public relations agencies, attractions, tour operators and wholesalers locally, nationally and internationally.

TMAC’s goal is to create a forum for communication and mutual benefit between industry and media members. Industry membership is not limited to Canadian companies or individuals, but foreign members must be willing to serve the needs of Canadian writers. In order to serve on TMAC's national board, you must be a resident of Canada.

To become a member of TMAC as an Industry Member, you must:

  • Provide two letters of reference.
    At least one reference must be from a current media member from a reputable media outlet with whom you have worked directly.
    The other may be from:
    - a travel media professional who is a member of TMAC or another media-accredited association,
    or,
    - a member of the travel industry profession.
  • Abide by our CODE OF CONDUCT.
