CONSHOHOCKEN, PA--(Marketwire - March 5, 2010) - AlliedBarton Security Services, the industry's premier provider of highly trained security personnel, has earned recognition for its learning and development programs with a Corporate University Xchange award for the third consecutive year. The Exemplary Practice award was presented at the gala ceremony at the University of Pennsylvania on March 1.
"To be recognized by the Corporate University Xchange with the highest honor in a category is an accomplishment that we are very proud of," said Jim Gillece, AlliedBarton Chief People Officer and Senior Vice President of Human Capital Management. "This award, like our three preceding CUX awards, positions AlliedBarton among the best of the best from all industries."
AlliedBarton received an Exemplary Practice award in the Alignment category, which focuses on furthering corporate goals through learning and development efforts. The award was granted for AlliedBarton's alignment of human capital management learning initiatives, specifically a Talent Lifecycle Value program, with the organization's needs.
The Corporate University Xchange Learning Excellence and Innovation Awards program recognizes outstanding work in corporate learning and talent development. It is the longest running independent evaluation of talent development and considered the most prestigious and difficult to win. An independent panel of award-winning learning executives and industry thought leaders selects the finalists.
"A constant focus on human capital management programs is critical to our ability to deliver high quality security programs to thousands of customers across the country," said Gillece. "Our employee retention, recognition and learning and development programs help us develop leaders who can not only provide exemplary service to our customers and embody AlliedBarton's culture and but also grow and develop as individuals."
In 2009, AlliedBarton was awarded a Corporate University Xchange Excellence Award for Innovation and Measurement. In 2008, AlliedBarton was awarded two Corporate University Xchange awards -- an Exemplary Practice Award and a Best Practice Award.
