HI Proud to be a Learning Partner with Scottsdale Insurance Company - Winner of Training Award

We couldn't be prouder of Scottsdale Insurance Company. The Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara is proud to be listed as a valued learning partner of Scottsdale Insurance Company in its recognition by Training magazine for being among "The Training Top 100 Award".

The Training Top 100 is a ranking of organizations that excel at human capital development, as determined each year by Training magazine. Companies earning this prestigious award are ranked on many factors, including financial commitment, programs offered, metrics measured, methods of evaluation, etc. Other factors include the use of workplace surveys, HR data such as turnover and new employee referrals, etc.

Of those companies on the list, Scottsdale Insurance Company (SIC) was not only the highest ranked of new companies, they also outranked all other insurance companies. There were nearly 800 applicants for this award. Criteria for selection included the quality of their training programs; the investments in people, money and time; and performance and return on investment.

SIC attributed much of their success to the quality of their learning partners. "We believe that one of the reasons we were selected is because of our unique approach to using external resources to respond to our skill, knowledge and organizational development needs," said Alesia Martin, vice president of Human Resources and the Learning Resources. SIC graciously invited The Hudson Institute of Santa Barbara to a reception in March to be among those acknowledged for their learning contributions, saying "We want you to know that we value your partnership."

The Hudson Institute, one of SIC's 45 learning partners, has been working with the agency to provide in-house coaching, training and education for the past three years. Congratulations to SIC for being among the best!
