Training magazine’s Training Top 125 Award winners represent the organizations with the most successful learning and development programs in the world—and the Top 125 has been the premier learning industry awards program for 18 years. Based on benchmarks such as total training budget, hours of training per employee annually, business outcomes measurement and more, the ranking is determined by assessing a range of factors, including financial investment in employee development, the scope of development programs, how closely such development efforts are linked to business goals and objectives, and the results they achieve.
