I expect to see the company continue to emerge as a dominant force in the training outsourcing industry in the next few years."

Companies considered for the list were assessed by experience in managing multi-year training BPO engagements, capabilities in delivering multiple BPO training services, revenue generated from training BPO services, and potential for growth and innovation in training BPO services.
