announced today that it has been named to Training Magazine’s
"Training Top 125” list for the second consecutive year. The company
rose to No. 42 on the list, from No. 82 in 2009. The magazine publishes
an annual ranking of organizations that excel in employee training and
development.
In commending Pitney
Bowes, Training cited the company’s Certified Mailstream
Consultant program as one that links customer applications to Pitney
Bowes solutions, helping participants "leverage the necessary postal and
carrier regulations to not only generate effective ROI, but also to
educate customers on postal requirements” for successful direct mail
results.
"At Pitney Bowes, we consider the knowledge of our workforce a key
differentiator in the solutions that we offer customers,” said Tina
Busch, vice president, learning and performance. "In fact, a deep
partnership exists between the learning support functions and the
company’s business units. Our professional development initiatives show

Bowes.”
Pitney Bowes has been recognized extensively for its commitment
to people. In addition to the "Training Top 125” ranking, the
company was recently named by Black Enterprise magazine as one of
"40 Best Companies for Diversity”; Black MBA Magazine’s ”Best 50
companies for Black Professionals”; and Asian Enterprise’s "Top 20 U.S.
companies for Asian Americans.”
Training magazine determines the Top 125 companies by measuring
quantitative and qualitative data. For the quantitative portion, an
outside research company scores each organization in five different
areas: training program/scope; tuition reimbursement; training
infrastructure and delivery; evaluation/metrics; and human resources.
Qualitative data includes demonstrable results, progress of programs,
innovation, success factors, training strategically linked to business
goals, and corporate commitment to training, among others.
