If at all possible, this is the way to go and it looks like the system this year will allow for those possibilities. Last year was pretty unusual for 1712 as, once we had our two nominations written, I had to actually go to Delia (a nominee and winner) and ask her to upload them to the award site. We were essentially at the deadline and as our student CA/Awards leader with access to the awards submission portal I had no other option, but to ask her.
It was kind of a funny moment, though,
"Kressly! I can't nominate myself."
"You're not nominating yourself, the team is. You're just uploading files for the team because it's the deadline and you're the one who uploads our awards submissions."
"But I can't do this."
"Yes, you can."
In the end 1712 was thrilled how things turned out for Delia last year, but I'm equally thrilled to see a little more time and care baked into the process this year.
Good Luck everyone.
