Brandon Hall Awards: Seven Wins, Endless Pride 

2024 was a landmark year for Fractal. We earned 5 Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards, recognizing everything from our groundbreaking onboarding programs to leadership development initiatives. These awards aren’t just trophies—they’re proof that our efforts to blend learning with real-world impact are working. 

One standout program is the Imagineers Training Program, designed to help new employees hit the ground running. By combining classroom learning with hands-on experiences like shadow projects and simulated client engagements, we’ve shortened onboarding time by 22%, making sure our team is ready to deliver from day one. 

Coursera AI Innovation Award: Shaping the Future of Work 

We’re not just keeping up with the future—we’re helping shape it. The Coursera AI Innovation Award recognizes our efforts in using Generative AI to upskill employees and transform workflows. 

Our courses, such as “Gen AI for Everyone” and “Gen AI for Business Leaders,” are empowering employees to use AI tools in their daily work. And the results? Game-changing. 

  • 60% of our workforce now uses Generative AI in their day-to-day tasks. 
  • Productivity has shot up by 35% across the organization. 

These programs aren’t just about staying competitive; they’re about ensuring our people are ready to lead the charge in an AI-driven world. 

 
At Fractal, learning is part of our DNA. From our 3C Learning Philosophy—Context, Connections, and Creativity to programs like the EmPower Skills Program, we believe in holistic growth. It’s not just about teaching technical skills—it’s about building well-rounded professionals who can think critically, communicate effectively, and lead with confidence. 

  • Leadership Development: Over 1,000 leaders participate annually in EmPower programs, building soft skills and leadership acumen. 
  • Generative AI Adoption: Tools like ChatGPT and custom AI solutions are helping employees save time, think creatively, and focus on impactful work. 

 
These awards are a celebration of the incredible work happening at Fractal. But they’re also a reminder of what’s possible when we dream big, innovate boldly, and invest in our people. 

We’re not stopping here. As we look to the future, we’re committed to raising the bar even higher—creating training experiences that don’t just prepare employees for what’s next but inspire them to lead the way.
