TrainingPros Recognized as a 2024 Champion of Learning by the Association for Talent Development
We’re thrilled to announce that TrainingPros has been named a 2024 Champion of Learning by the Association for Talent Development (ATD)! This recognition honors our efforts during Employee Learning Week (ELW)—a global initiative that celebrates the value of lifelong learning and the importance of developing talent in the workplace.
What is Employee Learning Week?
Held annually during the first full week of December, Employee Learning Week is ATD’s call to action for companies to highlight their commitment to employee development. In a world where the skills gap continues to grow and workplace demands evolve rapidly, organizations must prioritize talent development to remain competitive. ELW provides a perfect opportunity to showcase that commitment—whether through events, communication campaigns, or hands-on learning experiences.
And it’s not just a small celebration—hundreds of companies across industries and geographies participate in ELW each year, making it a cornerstone event in the talent development community.
How TrainingPros Celebrated ELW 2024
At TrainingPros, we’re passionate about learning—and not just during one week of the year. But when Employee Learning Week rolls around, we like to go the extra mile.
In 2024, we made ELW a week to remember:
- We promoted ELW across our digital channels, reminding our consultants, clients, and internal team of the many ways they can engage in learning year-round.
- We posted daily learning facts and tips to spark conversations and highlight the importance of continuous development.
- We launched a special podcast episode featuring a guest who shared how her company celebrates ELW and promotes a culture of learning.
- We published a blog article explaining what ELW is, why it matters, and how organizations of all sizes can participate.
- We held giveaways for our consultants, including gift certificates for training courses and other prizes to help support their personal and professional growth.
These activities were more than just fun—they were part of our mission to support our network of learning professionals and to celebrate the impact of talent development in organizations everywhere.
Why We Care About Employee Learning Week
At TrainingPros, employee learning isn’t just part of what we do—it’s everything we do. Our entire business is focused on supporting corporate learning leaders as they lead their teams in designing, developing, and delivering impactful training solutions. From onboarding and leadership development to custom eLearning and classroom facilitation, we’re deeply invested in helping organizations build stronger, smarter, more skilled workforces.
That’s why Employee Learning Week (ELW) is so meaningful to us. It’s a time to pause and celebrate the work that often happens behind the scenes—creating learning programs, engaging employees, and equipping teams with the tools they need to succeed. It’s also a chance to shine a spotlight on the learning and development professionals we serve, as well as the incredible consultants we work with every day.
Participating in ELW gives us a platform to elevate the conversation around talent development, share knowledge, and encourage others to prioritize learning. And since our mission is to match companies with experienced L&D consultants who can deliver results, it’s only fitting that we help lead the charge in celebrating and promoting employee learning.

The Champion of Learning award from ATD isn’t just about celebrating what we did during one week—it’s a reflection of our overall commitment to helping people grow. At TrainingPros, we work with top-tier learning and development consultants who are passionate about making an impact.
