While past years have seen 'open voting' for nominees begin only after the Application process was closed, this year we are going to open the voting booth prior to the extended application deadline.
Voting starts TODAY April 23 at 00:01:00 (that's midnight the morning of April 23) and will continue through Monday, May 7 2018 at 23:59:59 (11:59:59 PM). That's two full weeks for votes to be cast.
While Insightful Accountant has our defined standards against which every applicant is measured for each of the ProAdvisor categories we recognize, voting is your opportunity to recognize the 3 nominees you feel best fit your 'ideal' of a ProAdvisor.
Votes cast per person are weighted against the total number of votes cast overall, and then those values are weighted against the overall applications scores to determine the final scores used in our system. This means that while voting is important, it is just one limited factor in the overall outcome in exactly the same way that certifications, or experience or any of the other individual factors are individually just a portion of the entire process.
So we encourage you to vote for your 3 favorite nominees at this website.
