Now in its 13th year, the LearningElite Awards Program recognizes organizations with exemplary learning and development strategies and best practices. This year, we were fortunate to be back in-person to celebrate our winners. The Gala, which was held in conjunction with the annual Chief Learning Officer Symposium, was held October 15 in San Diego.
From global corporations to small and agile teams, these 59 winning organizations embrace what it truly means to be elite in learning.
In order to qualify for LearningElite status, organizations must succeed in scoring above the qualifying benchmark in five key performance areas critical to L&D: learning strategy, leadership commitment, learning execution, learning impact and business performance results. Each organization is scored and ranked Gold, Silver or Bronze based on their score relative to the benchmark. Seven Editor’s Choice awards are also given out each year: one for each of the five LearningElite dimensions, one for Best Midsize Company and one for Best Small Company.
Congratulations to the 2023 LearningElite!
