Mark, theme and period, then your profession or unit as a tag: 2027 Evinca Honoree · Medication Safety · Clinical Pharmacist. Never as letters after a name, never as “best” or “top”, and never in place of a licence or professional grade. Wording policy.
Each theme opens once it has a tested rubric and enough trained reviewers from the professions it covers. Six open first.

One Evinca Record per person or unit holds an evidence bank: documents uploaded once are reused for every later application, and a second application in the same year is 30% off. The same project cannot win two marks in one year, but it counts toward a combination title.
Each application unlocks practical tools for your work: a career story, a care impact portfolio, an improvement starter kit, a thank-you card studio and more. You choose them in your account as soon as your story is saved or your application is submitted, and they stay yours whatever the outcome. They are tools, never awards or credentials, and they have no effect on review.
| Application | Gifts you choose | From |
|---|---|---|
| Spotlight Story (free) | 1 | Starter tools |
| Verified Spotlight | 2 | Starter and Practice tools |
| Evinca Distinction | 3 | All three collections |
| Evinca Honor (Individual or Rising Star) | 4 | All three collections |
| Evinca Honor (Leadership) | 5 | All three collections |
| Evinca Honor (Team) | 6 | All three collections |

Money buys verification and products, never a decision. Everything that spreads the word is free.
| Feature | How it works | What you earn | Safeguard |
|---|---|---|---|
| Colleague confirmations | Invite colleagues by link to confirm your contribution with a work email. | Three confirmations lower the Verified Spotlight from US$19 to US$15. | Self-confirmations and duplicate accounts are rejected. Confirming never earns points. |

| Refer and earn | Every share card carries your personal link. | The newcomer gets 10% off their first paid application. You earn 1 point per paid referral; 3 points unlock a free Verified Spotlight. | Points, never cash. At most 2 free Spotlights a year; points expire after 12 months. |
| People’s Choice | Verified users get one vote per theme each month. | The holder can show the verified vote count on the Spotlight and Distinction certificates. The story with most votes in each theme gets a People’s Choice badge. | Showing votes is the holder’s choice and can be switched off any time. Votes never decide Distinction, Honor or Laureate, and never appear on Honor certificates. |
| Peer Reviewer track | Holders of a Distinction or Honor can train as Evinca Peer Reviewers. | A reviewer badge, a review-hours certificate for CPD, and US$5 of Evinca account credit per completed review (credit only, never cash). | Never reviews colleagues from the same institution. A calibration test comes first. |
