The competition was fierce this year, continued Freifeld.

NIIT is extremely proud to be recognized by Training Magazine with this honor.  It a reflection of the values and work ethic that we represent Excellence in Training, says Sapnesh Lalla, NIIT President and Business Unit Head.  NIIT continues to be the sole training provider on this list whose entire business is training and development programs.
 
Final rankings will be announced on Monday, February 13, 2012 during theTraining 2012 Conference & Expo at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia.  Training Magazine will host an invitation-only, black-tie gala honoring the selected companies.  The evening will include the official countdown to Number 1, and all companies will receive Training Top 125 awards of recognition.
