  • Couto Solutions & AICPA's Community Wins the Platinum AVA Award!

    Couto Solutions Platinum AVA AwardCouto Solutions' customer American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) won yet another prestigious award, the 2011 Platinum AVA Award for their Start Here Go Places Community that was designed and developed by Couto Solutions!   The AVA Awards is an international competition that recognizes outstanding work by creative professionals involved in the concept, direction, design and production of media that is part of the evolution of digital communication.   AICPA teamed up with the world-class design development firm Couto Solutions who specializes in creating enterprise class community solutions on the Telligent platform, to create an educational portal in their community.  This is the second award the duo has won for AICPA's educational portal. The AVA award was earned for the innovative web design and functionality of AICPA's Start Here, Go Places online community http://community.StartHereGoPlaces.com.

    AICPA's  goal was to develop an exclusive environment for high school business and accounting teachers and guidance counselors that is not only engaging but also offers classroom resources to keep their students thriving in the classroom. The Portal was designed to greet educators with a simple and elegant community home page that easily guides them to take an action-whether it's to start a conversation on a topic that they are interested in, post a question in a forum or request materials such as magazines or DVDs to help inspire their students.  In addition to winning multiple industry awards,  AICPA's  Start Here, Go Places online community's members are acknowledging the site by averaging more than 17 minutes in length per visit and adding more than 2,000 business and accounting teachers and guidance counselors  as members.  This is another great example on how Couto Solutions is helping organizations crush their goals via the modern communication tool we call community.
