AAMVA’s awards program fosters a tradition of excellence in the motor vehicle and law enforcement community by honoring individuals, teams, and organizations who have committed their time and resources to safety and security initiatives, outstanding customer service, and public affairs and consumer educational programs throughout North America. Each year, AAMVA receives numerous outstanding submissions in each category and through a rigorous judging process selects those that are exemplary. Awards are presented at our Regional Conferences and at our Annual International Conference.

2023 Awards
The AAMVA Awards Program recently underwent some changes to expand participation, streamline the awards, and bring consistency across all awards. Specific changes include:
- Security Awards are now called Fraud Awards
- Public Affairs and Consumer Education (PACE) Awards have been expanded to 10 awards and are now called Communications Awards
- Communications Awards no longer have categories under divisions and will include awards at the regional level
- **NEW** Customer Service Award (under Service Awards) for contact center/frontline employee
- One submission per agency for each award but no restriction on the total number of submissions
