What is the GT3S Points Tracker?

The Tracker reflects the annual points accrued (based on your Quarter) for all four focus areas, as well as the aggregate total. It is an easy way to see where you are excelling and where you might need more work. Points reset at the beginning of each new WIN-NextGen™ Quarter.

What is WIN-NextGen™ Quarter

Your WIN-NextGen™ Quarter is the Quarter of the year in which you joined, expressed as QTR1, QTR2, QTR3, and QTR4. For example, if you joined WIN-NextGen™ in January through March, your WIN-NextGen™ Quarter would be QTR1. If you joined WIN-NextGen™ in April through June, your quarter would be QTR2, and so on. Your WIN-NextGen™ Quarter also controls your annual points accrual period. For example, if you’re a QTR2 member, you accrue annual points from April of the current year to April of the next year. This allows all WIN-NextGen™ members to accrue points on an annual basis in a fair manner.

Where can I find my WIN-NextGen™ Quarter?

You can see your designated WIN-NextGen™ Quarter under “My Preferences” in the “Settngs” section of the website. Settings is located under your name in the upper right-hand menu.
