Edward Jones Recognized for Training Excellence for 21st Consecutive Year

Edward Jones once again has been named a top company for training. The firm ranked No. 19 on Training magazine’s 2021 Training Top 100 list, up six spots from last year in its 21st consecutive year on this prestigious list.

“We provide our associates the continuous learning and professional development opportunities to unleash their full potential and support their purpose and that of the firm – to partner for positive impact to improve the lives of our clients and colleagues and, together, better our communities and society,” Edward Jones Chief Human Resources Officer Kristin Johnson said. “Even as we navigated the challenges of the pandemic, our commitment to learning and development never wavered. We are honored to be recognized by Training magazine — and proud of our associates’ commitment to contribute at the highest level.”

In lieu of its traditional black-tie awards gala, Training magazine announced the winning companies Feb. 8 at the 2021 Virtual Training Conference. The magazine ranks companies’ excellence in employer-sponsored training and development programs tied to corporate strategic goals and business impact.

Edward Jones consistently earns high marks as an employer of choice in national rankings. For the 21st year, Edward Jones was named one of FORTUNE magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For 2020.” The firm took the No. 7 overall spot on the exclusive ranking.
