Twenty-one years ago, Intuit\u00ae released the \u201cQuickBooks Professional Advisors Program.\u201d Founder Scott Cook declared the goal of the program was to help accounting professionals take a more proactive role in helping their clients achieve maximum financial success while using QuickBooks\u00ae.<\/p>\n

While our product offerings have evolved over the years, our commitment to fueling your and your clients\u2019 success rings as true today as ever.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why we\u2019re excited to announce an evolution in the ProAdvisor\u00ae Program, redesigned to recognize more of the work you do with new and innovative benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur goal is to create a partner program that recognizes and supports our accountants so they can accelerate their growth within Intuit\u2019s ecosystem,\u201d says Julie Chen, Global Leader for the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program, Intuit QuickBooks. \u201cWe recognize the value accountants bring to their clients and to the profession \u2013 and want to make it even easier and more rewarding to participate in the ProAdvisor Program.\u201d<\/p>\n

Intuit spent the past year actively seeking feedback from ProAdvisors via one-on-one interviews, surveys, focus groups and in-person events to learn how the program can help you face the challenges of today\u2019s ever-changing global accounting landscape. The redesigned program is a result of your feedback and input in an effort to be a better partner to you and create a program that furthers your success and growth.<\/p>\n

New Point Structure<\/b><\/p>\n

Now, there are more ways to move up the tiers, and unlock new and better benefits. The program was recently updated to a points structure that recognizes more of the work you already do. Instead of just counting QuickBooks Online clients and certification to move up the tiers, you\u2019ll now be granted points for your current and new QuickBooks accounting, self-employed, and QuickBooks Online Payroll clients, plus active certifications. If you are part of a team under the same QuickBooks Accountant firm all your points will be aggregated together to help you move up the tiers more quickly.<\/p>\n

The new point system was crafted to recognize the work you do and give you more flexibility in moving up the tiers and unlocking new benefits. Points are accumulated based on all members in the same QuickBooks Online Accountant (QBOA) firm through the completion of actions.<\/p>\n
