Explorance & Omnicom Media Group Win 2021 Brandon Hall Group Bronze Award – Best Advance in Learning Measurement

Montreal, Quebec – August 30, 2021 – Explorance, a leader in Experience Management (XM) solutions, alongside partner organization Omnicom Media Group (OMG), has jointly won a coveted Brandon Hall Group Bronze award for excellence in the ‘Best Advance in Learning Evaluation’ category.

Explorance and OMG’s win was announced on August 19, 2021 during an online ceremony hosted by Brandon Hall Group. View a complete list of all winners here.

OMG had created one of the best and most robust training programs among major North American media conglomerates, yet was not measuring effectiveness. By partnering with Explorance and implementing Metrics That Matter (MTM), OMG was able to more effectively gather and analyze data collected from its various training offerings. This partnership brought credibility to OMG’s L&D programs, helped align methodologies and focus areas, and underlined the productive combination of MTM with OMG’s training programs.

“Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards in 2021 provide much-needed and well-deserved recognition to organizations that went above and beyond to support their stakeholders during the unprecedented disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Brandon Hall Group COO and leader of the HCM Excellence Awards Program Rachel Cooke. “The awards provide validation of best practices in all areas of HCM at a time when they have never been more important to employers, employees and customers.”

Entries were evaluated by a panel of veteran, independent senior industry experts, Brandon Hall Group analysts and executives based upon these criteria: fit the need, design of the program, functionality, innovation and overall measurable benefits.

Excellence Award winners are scheduled to be honored at Brandon Hall Group’s HCM Excellence Conference, Feb. 1-3, 2022, at the Hilton West Palm Beach, Florida. Select winners also will serve as presenters in breakout sessions, sharing their leading practices during the conference.

“We added several awards categories this year to specifically address critical needs, including how organizations addressed the new dynamics of work and embedded the principles of diversity, equity and inclusion in their HCM practices,” Brandon Hall Group CEO Mike Cooke said. “Winning organizations in all categories demonstrated a people centric approach while driving superior business results under challenging and unprecedented conditions. Demonstrating HCM’s impact on the business is what sets our awards apart.”
