Midwest ACE Reward System

We've revised the point system so you and your colleagues achieve points faster!

First, login into your account on the web site and update your past activities by June 1. The website will not be accessible for editing past points and the new values will be assigned. After July 1, your points for activities will accumulate at the new value. (See the new point system here.)

Then fill out the 2008 High Five Award Nomination Form or the 2008 Gratitude Award Nomination Form to nominate others for their accomplishments. We'll do the rest.

Here are the tiers:

High Five Awards - ELIGIBLE FOR ALL MEMBERS
Applause - 300 accumulated points plus a High Five Award (determined by H&R committee)
Standing Ovation - 750 accumulated points plus an Applause award (determined by H&R committee)

Award winners are recognized at our annual conference. Update your points! Nominate your Colleagues! Do it today!

Please take a moment to ensure that your service points are current.
