Marlborough – May 1, 2025 – TTA proudly announces its recognition as a Top 20 Staffing and Temporary Resources Company by Training Industry, Inc. for the second consecutive year. TTA, a pioneer in learning and development staffing, has been delivering scalable solutions for over 30 years, supporting organizations ranging from dynamic start-ups to Fortune 500 companies. With a network of more than 23,000 vetted L&D professionals, TTA seamlessly augments internal teams and scales workforce solutions to support large, complex training initiatives.
As organizations navigate shifting priorities and evolving skill demands, the need for agile L&D staffing partners has never been more important. This recognition highlights the growing demand and strategic value of staff augmentation across industries and company sizes. In fact, recent data shows that external training services spending rose to approximately $12.4 billion in 2024, accounting for 12–13% of total U.S. training expenditures (trainingmag.com). Additionally, organizations are increasingly turning to flexible, contingent L&D talent, with 41% of HR and L&D professionals reporting the use of contractors to address skills gaps, and nearly 77% of companies expecting to significantly increase their use of freelance and contingent workers over the next five years (reworked.co). TTA’s staffing solutions directly address these trends, providing agile, scalable talent to meet evolving training needs.
Training Industry selected companies based on the following key criteria:
