ORLANDO, Fla., June 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Certus, a leading provider of digital training and certification solutions, is proud to announce that it has been Certified™ by Great Place To Work® for the third consecutive year. This prestigious recognition is based entirely on feedback from current employees about their experience working at Certus.
According to the 2025 Great Place To Work® Trust Index™ survey, 83% of Certus employees stated that the company is a great place to work – compared to the 57% average for typical U.S.-based companies.
The survey reflects strong ratings in key areas such as autonomy, flexibility and support – hallmarks of Certus' people-first culture. Notably, 94% of employees said they are able to take time off from work when necessary, and 92% agreed that people at Certus care about each other.
"Being certified as a Great Place To Work® for the third year in a row is more than just an honor – it's a reflection of the culture we've built together, and a signal that we're moving in the right direction," said John Comly, CEO of Certus. "Workplaces don't improve by chance. They get better by embracing a shared vision and sense of ownership, sharing and listening to diverse perspectives and having a willingness to evolve. Each year, we treat the survey feedback as an opportunity to learn and then make changes that reflect what our colleagues say they need. It's not perfect, and it's never finished – but it's progress, and we're committed to that. Congrats to the team on this well-deserved recognition."
Employee feedback emphasized a sense of engagement and trust across the organization. One employee shared anonymously:
"Certus is amazing. New hires take a DISC assessment to understand unique personalities and working styles... Leadership is open, honest and approachable. We have monthly All Hands Calls where the CEO answers employee questions… Praise is frequent and constructive. Personally, I feel very seen and like I have a voice. I love the company and everything it stands for."
Survey results are collected and reported by an independent third-party provider to ensure confidentiality. To become Great Place To Work® certified, Certus meets strict survey criteria, including a minimum response rate and threshold scores that represent feedback from the company's broad population.
"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.

Trump Is Turning Us Into a Doddering Industrial Giant

The American economy seems to be slowing. Although the unemployment rate remains low, the jobs report released this month showed that the U.S. labor market has essentially been stalled since President Trump foisted 'Liberation Day' on us in April. Yes, it's true, the artificial intelligence sector remains white-hot, but once you look beyond it, the weather is chillier — the manufacturing sector may be shrinking, home building is slowing and most employment growth is happening in just one industry: health care. Perhaps this slowdown will soon reverse. But nearly seven months into his presidency, it's now clear that Mr. Trump and his officials' tax and trade policy — and their hatred for next-generation energy technologies — is distorting and, increasingly, robbing the economy of its complexity. And if he keeps at it, Mr. Trump will demote America into a deindustrialized power that relies on technology developed elsewhere and doesn't know how to sell much more than crypto, soybeans and petroleum products. You can see this, first, because Mr. Trump and his officials are waging a war on electricity infrastructure. This campaign is primarily driven by their opposition to the solar and wind farms that they associate with their foils, the Democrats. Even as electricity has clearly become more important to the economy — and even as the country's biggest technology firms strive to secure any spare electron for their new metropolis-size data centers — Mr. Trump and his team have begun a regulatory coup to smother new power development. That war began, of course, with Mr. Trump's signature domestic policy law, which pinched off long-running tax credits for wind and solar energy. But it does not stop there. In the past few weeks, the Trump administration has started an all-out war on renewable energy. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum has weaponized his department's permitting process to slow down wind, solar and battery projects nationwide — every step of every federal permit for renewable energy must now pass under the eye of some political appointee. Another recent order has suggested that the federal government may essentially ban wind and solar farms from public land. A separate Transportation Department policy could even restrict companies' ability to build private wind farms on private land. At the same time, Chris Wright, the energy secretary, has killed federal financing for the Grain Belt Express transmission project, an electricity megaproject that was set to zip 5,000 megawatts of power across the Great Plains. Although the power line was fully permitted and approved, it had grown unpopular with some Missouri farmers, and thus with the Republican senator Josh Hawley. In other moods and moments, Mr. Wright has said that the country must build more power lines, not fewer. But in stranding the project, Mr. Wright has endangered a cheap new power supply and damaged the government's credibility. As long as he governs, executives cannot trust the Energy Department to keep its promises. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

There Is a Specter Haunting Trump's Economy: Stagflation

Since President Trump took office, economists have been waiting for his policies to work their way through the U.S. economy and reveal their consequences. The soft data, mostly surveys of consumers and businesses that track how people feel about the economy, turned down sharply months ago, while the hard data — jobs, G.D.P. growth, inflation — all seemed fine. But recently, a telling series of hard economic data rolled in that has rightfully raised alarm bells about slowing growth and increased inflation — a dreaded economic combination known as stagflation. Mr. Trump's tariffs are now clearly fueling inflation, particularly in goods such as home appliances, cars and food. In the first six months of the year, real (that is, inflation-adjusted) consumer spending, the main driver behind business cycles and robust economic expansion, barely grew, after rising 3 percent last year. G.D.P. growth slowed by about half, to 1.2 percent this year from 2.5 percent last year. When overall growth falls that sharply, the labor market tends to follow, which is precisely what happened: Job growth, at 35,000 per month on average between May and July, is dangerously close to stall speed. While presidents always take credit for good economic news and try to deflect bad news (in this president's case, by firing the messenger who delivered it), it's often hard to link what's going on in the economy to the current administration. Not this time. Whether it's historically high tariffs that never quite seem to stabilize, deportations that threaten to seriously disrupt labor supply in sectors like construction and health services, or a reverse-Robin Hood, budget-busting bill that takes money away from those most likely to spend it, Mr. Trump's policies have pushed economic uncertainty to levels last seen during the onset of the pandemic. This uncertainty has damped investment, hiring and consumption, while the tariffs increase prices. In other words: stagflation. For many American adults, the specter of stagflation may conjure thoughts of the 1970s. But if Mr. Trump's stagflation continues to grow, it will be different in one very important way: The economic damage will be almost entirely self-inflicted. In the '70s, stagflation was caused not by an unconstrained president but by 'exogenous shocks,' meaning big, unexpected disruptions originating from events outside the country and exacerbated by the inaction of the Federal Reserve to offset them. The biggest, and most famous, of these shocks involved the oil market. Because of the oil embargo the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries imposed on the United States in 1973 and the Iranian Revolution in 1979, the price of oil increased more than tenfold. As a result, by 1980, the United States was spending roughly six times as much on oil as it was in 1970. That change reverberated throughout the economy and caused inflation to reach a high of nearly 15 percent by the end of the decade. In what is now a famous horror story of monetary policy gone wrong, the Fed not only failed to respond to the rising inflationary pressures in the '70s; it actively made them worse. The reason was in part political: Arthur Burns yielded to pressure from the Nixon White House to disregard concerns about rising inflation and keep interest rates low to hold down unemployment. (Sound familiar?) The resulting stagflation crisis ended only when a new Fed chair, Paul Volcker, raised rates to almost 20 percent in 1980, leading to a deep and painful recession.
