Analyst of the Year
HDI introduced the HDI Analyst of the Year Award in 2004. Each year, HDI works jointly with the HDI local chapters to identify and award the industry’s top first-level support analyst. Support analysts who are nominated at the local chapter will have an opportunity to compete with their peers locally, regionally, and globally for this prestigious award.
The nominator presents to the local chapter a personal business profile of the nominee including specific attributes that demonstrate the nominee’s understanding of industry standards, commitment to excellent service, and consistently exceeding performance objectives.
The winner from each of HDI’s seven local chapter regions are invited to participate in the HDI’s Global Analyst of the Year Awards festivities held during the HDI Annual Conference & Expo. Robert Half Technology, the premier sponsor, covers each regional winner’s conference registration while the local chapters cover travel expenses.
