The votes are in, and you have spoken! Training magazine is proud to unveil the winners of the 2020 Training Magazine Network Choice Awards—Training’s crowd-sourced vendor awards program.
Training Magazine Network (TMN) has always been a highly engaged and vocal community, as evidenced by the chat conversations and peer learning happening before, during and after TMN Webinars. In an effort to tap into this highly experienced community’s expertise and “share what works” with all of Training’s audiences, we once again invited TMN’s 171,000-plus-member community to cast their votes for the vendor partners they find to provide the most effective tools and solutions for their work, in six categories:
- Authoring Tools
- Custom Content/Program Development
- Gamification
- Leadership Development
- Learning Portal/Learning Management System (LMS)
- Measurement, Testing, and Assessment
An alphabetical list in each of the six categories was compiled based on Training magazine and Training Magazine Network’s own industry data and research and included vendor companies that both have and have not done business or partnered with Training magazine and its affiliates. Voters also had the opportunity to enter a preferred vendor product or solution if the tool they wished to rank was not listed. The voting was held online June 1-September 30, 2020.
Some 6,441 votes were cast by 2,946 unique respondents for 459 companies. Participants could submit a survey ballot in as many of the six categories as were applicable to them, but only one ballot per voter per category was permitted; multiple employees from the same company were permitted to vote. Winners were determined by a combination of the total number of votes received and an average weighted score based on effectiveness. Because of this determination, there is not a set number of winners per category.
The winners are listed here. In tandem with the Choice Awards, TMN created an online directory, which highlights the Training Magazine Network Choice Award winners and will be updated with new honorees each year. Visit: www.trainingmagnetwork.com/awards.
