"For the last three years, we have assessed the leading companies in our industry to determine those best suited for world-class outsourcing engagements,"said Doug Harward, CEO of the North Carolina-based TrainingOutsourcing.com.
"This year, we looked at 75 companies to assess their expertise, experience, strengths and capabilities.
We evaluated corporate competencies in the 22 processes identified in the Training Process Framework.
"We looked at their strength within 13 business capabilities areas such as financial stability, geographic reach, and talent leadership," Harward continued.
"We then assessed the marketing strategy of each company to determine if training outsourcing is a core service in their business model." The Top 20 list was accessed by more than 700,000 visitors to the TrainingOutsourcing.com Web site during the last 12 months.
It has also been viewed by some 2m people, through inclusion in magazines such as the ASTD's TandD Magazine, HR Executive, HR Magazine, HRO Today, and Outsourcing and Offshoring, as well as several industry websites.
According to Harward, the Top 20 List has been a primary resource for US-based corporations and government agencies seeking to identify training companies to receive important RFPs and RFIs.
The current 'Top 20' includes not only TIS but also Accenture Learning, Global Knowledge, IBM Learning Solutions, New Horizons Computer Learning Centers, NIIT, Raytheon Professional Services and SkillSoft.
Three of the 20 companies included in this year's list have their worldwide headquarters in India - compared with only one company in 2004 and 2005.
