As a women-owned and operated company, TrainingPros is proud to celebrate its diversity by announcing it has received national certification as a Women’s Business Enterprise by the Greater Women’s Business Council (GWBC). GWBC is a regional certifying partner of the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), the largest certifying body of women-owned businesses in the United States.

“Earning our WBENC certification is an important step for us,” said Leigh Anne Lankford, owner and president of TrainingPros, a specialized staffing agency, and training development company. “We are proud to be recognized for the diversity in our company and to offer our clients enhanced value because of that diversity.”

WBENC’s national standard for women-owned certification, implemented by the GWBC, is a meticulous process involving an in-depth business review and a site inspection. The certification process confirms each business is at least 51% women-owned, operated, and controlled.

Including women-owned businesses among their suppliers enables corporations and government agencies to demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs.
