ATD Selects Raymond for Excellence in Practice Recognition

“At Raymond, we are a learning and growing organization that supports, encourages and cultivates our employees, in turn helping to do the same for our customers,” says Michael Field, chief executive officer for The Raymond Corporation. “To be recognized by the Association for Talent Development as a company that excels in our Course Manager Training and Development Program, not only here in the United States but internationally, reinforces the importance and effectiveness of our efforts.”

ATD received 126 submissions in fall 2014 from organizations around the world. Thirteen organizations received awards and 30 were recognized with citations. Excellence in Practice categories are: career development, coaching and mentoring, diversity and inclusion, facilitating organizational change, integrated talent management, learning technologies, managing the learning function, organizational learning and development, performance improvement and sales enablement.
