"Since its inception, the focus of the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program has been to provide accounting professionals with the tools they need to be successful in their practices and with the clients they serve," said Ian Vacin, leader of the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program. "By developing a tiered structure, we are recognizing accounting professionals in the program who spend the time to become proficient in QuickBooks and other Intuit products and services geared toward small businesses." The ProAdvisor Member Web site has also been completely transformed and will launch in early September. Accountants will be able to access their benefits and tools to set and achieve their professional and business goals. The Web site will continue to act as a portal to the online community of more than 60,000 QuickBooks ProAdvisors. In addition, starting Sept. 13, the QuickBooks ProAdvisor Program will be priced at $599 annually for new members.
