Kaplan Earns 2025 Great Place To Work Certification™
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Leading global education company Kaplan is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the second year in a row. The prestigious award is based entirely on what current Kaplan employees say about their experience working there. This year, 83% of Kaplan employees said it’s a great place to work—26 points higher than the average U.S. company, according to Great Place To Work.
According to Great Place To Work, the global authority on workplace culture, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified company. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits, and have a fair chance at promotion.
“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Kaplan stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”
“We are incredibly proud to be certified as a Great Place to Work for the second consecutive year, a recognition that comes directly from our employees’ experiences. At Kaplan, we believe that fostering a positive work environment isn’t just a priority, but essential. Supporting our people drives morale, strengthens retention, and attracts top talent. This certification is a testament to the company culture we’ve built together,” said Gregory Marino, CEO, Kaplan North America. “On behalf of Kaplan’s leadership, I extend a heartfelt thank you to our thousands of employees. You are what makes Kaplan, Kaplan, and we remain committed to ensuring this is a workplace where you thrive, want to build a career, and are proud of what we do.”
Marino notes that creating a sense of community, especially in a remote-first environment like Kaplan is, involves innovative approaches. The company’s internal, grassroots engagement team Kaplan 4 Kaplan (K4K), for example, brings employees together through various virtual events, such as networking meetups and other unique and seasonal gatherings, fostering connection and engagement. Another standout initiative, Kaplan’s ambassador program, pairs new hires with experienced employees who guide them through their first 90 days. With more than 50 volunteer ambassadors, the program ensures every new hire feels supported beyond their immediate team—offering insights into company culture, opportunities for involvement, and answers to general questions. Running strong for two years, it has already welcomed and empowered more than 150 new employees.
Kaplan employees also take pride in Develop U, the company’s annual multi-week, fully online program for employees to learn, share, and network with colleagues across the diverse organization. All networking and professional/personal development opportunities are Kaplan-created and presented by subject matter experts and thought leaders at Kaplan.
In addition to his latest accolade, Kaplan has been certified for four consecutive years as a Most Loved Workplace®. The list recognizes companies that put respect, caring, and appreciation for their employees at the center of their business model.
