We are excited to announce that Gold Coast Schools was recently named one of Orlando’s Top Workplaces for 2024. The Orlando Sentinel Media Group curated the list of top workplaces based on employee surveys conducted in 2023.
The confidential survey (conducted by research partner Energage) asked current employees to measure their employer on 24 factors, including the following:
- Company leadership
- Meaningfulness and appreciation
- Career opportunities
- Working environment
- Managerial skills
- Pay and benefits
Survey results were only valid if at least 35 percent of employees in a given company responded.
“Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “That’s something to be proud of. In today’s market, leaders must ensure they’re allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That’s paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends.”
Gold Coast began operations in 1970 as a real estate school with a single location and has since grown into one of the country’s largest providers of education in the fields of real estate, appraisal, mortgage, insurance, CAM, and construction education. Gold Coast Schools has campuses across Florida and serves distance learners through online and livestream formats. Gold Coast joined the Colibri Group, a network of brands offering career education in multiple industries, in 2020.
“We are thrilled to be named a Top Workplace by The Orlando Sentinel Media Group,” said Michael Hackett, Director of Strategy and Operations at Gold Coast Schools. “This recognition reflects our ongoing efforts to prioritize the well-being and satisfaction of our employees, who are the cornerstone of our success. We are immensely proud of our team and their dedication to excellence.”
