Companies must meet specific criteria to be eligible for a Top 20 position. The criteria include:

        many modalities.
    --  Subject matter expertise across topic and industry.
    --  Industry visibility, innovation and impact.
    --  Company size and growth potential.
    --  Strength of clients.
    --  Geographic reach.

Earlier this year, RPS was named the No.1 learning outsourcing provider, for the third consecutive year, in HRO Today magazine's "Baker's Dozen in Learning." In May, RPS, in partnership with Midas International, received an "Excellence in Practice" award from ASTD (American Society for Training and Development), one of 16 training and development-related awards out of 182 submissions. Training Industry, Inc. also named RPS as a "Top 20 Training Outsourcing Provider" in April. More information is available about the RPS training awards.
