Company Garners Awards in Two Categories

May 6, 2003

Palo Alto, CA -- The readers of Training Magazine have selected CPP, Inc. as a recipient of the prestigious publication's inaugural Achieving Performance Excellence (APX) Awards. CPP won in two categories.
The company, best known for its Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) and Spectrum CPI 260™ instruments, was honored for "skills gap analysis/assessment for skills training" and for "assessment for HR management." The awards illustrate how CPP has set the gold standard in assessments and training tools to support leadership and executive coaching, team building, career management, and communication.

Training Magazine asked its 50,000 readers to select winners from among hundreds of companies, based on one overarching question: Which vendors contribute to their company's success? When it comes to assessment, the answer is CPP.

"The Achieving Performance Excellence awards are a real affirmation of what CPP has been doing for nearly 50 years," says David Krantz, president and CEO of CPP. "The fact that we attained this recognition in two categories illustrates the breadth of our offerings. We pride ourselves on having a product that meets nearly every development need, whether it's in the corporate field, in government, or in the education sector."

Training Magazine will formally announce the APX awards in its June 2003 issue.
