Atlanta-based John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods was listed #34 in Training magazine’s 2006 “Top 100 Training Organizations,” one of only two homebuilders to make the national list.

This marks the fifth consecutive year Wieland has been recognized at the magazine’s annual Training Conference and Expo awards ceremony. The company ranked among such notable organizations as FedEx (#83), General Mills (#10) and Hewlett Packard (#85).

Each organization's ranking is based on several factors including the impact of the programs on a company’s core business objectives and their ability to provide a competitive advantage for a company within its industry.
