Those still studying for the qualification are welcome to nominate peers, however only those who have been fully admitted to ICAS membership can be nominated.

If a CA has featured on three or more previous Top Young CA (or its previous iteration) lists their name will automatically not be put forward for the 2020 competition, unless there is demonstratable evidence of significant achievement since their last nomination Similarly, if a CA has been a previous category winner, they are not eligible to enter the One Young CA competition. The nominator will not be notified of this decision.
