Kimball Midwest earns Training APEX Award
Kimball Midwest, a national industrial supplier based in Columbus, again has been recognized for excellence in its training and development programs by a leading publication.
"Training" magazine ranked Kimball Midwest among the 95 winners of its 2025 Training APEX Awards, which were handed out earlier this month during a gala in Orlando.
“Kimball Midwest continues to focus on the growth of our people and performance,” Kimball Midwest Director of Sales Development Kate Callison said. “We live this value by expanding our leadership development, career path focus and commitment to continuous learning. This focus supports both our customers and all Kimball Midwest associates.”
The Training APEX Awards ranking is determined by assessing a range of qualitative and quantitative factors, including financial investment in employee development, the scope of development programs, how closely such development efforts are linked to business goals and objectives, and their effectiveness in terms of behavior change and business impact.
Companies that want to be considered for Training APEX Awards ranking complete a detailed application, which is scored both quantitatively by an outside research and statistical data company and qualitatively by "Training" magazine’s editor/publisher and Training Hall of Fame representatives.
“The 2025 Training APEX Awards winners have earned a special place in the rich history of "Training" magazine’s celebration of stellar human capital development over the last 25 years,” Training Editor/Publisher Lorri Freifeld said. “As we mark this silver jubilee anniversary, we applaud their impressive achievements in and steadfast commitment to employee learning and development over the past year. We are proud to recognize these champions of training.”
