We're thrilled to share that Insight Experience has been named to the 2026 Training Industry Top 20 Experiential Learning Technologies Companies list for the second year in a row. This recognition places us among an elite group of providers shaping the future of immersive learning.
Recognition for Innovation and Impact
Every year, Training Industry, a leading research and information resource for corporate learning leaders, publishes its Top 20 Training Companies reports across critical sectors of the learning and development marketplace. These lists are designed to help business leaders identify the most innovative, impactful, and reliable partners in corporate training.
Selection to the Experiential Learning Technologies list is based on the following criteria:
-
Scope and quality of features, capabilities, and analytics
-
Market presence, brand visibility, innovation, and impact
-
Strength of client portfolio and customer relationships
-
Business performance and growth trajectory
For us, being recognized two years running means that the work we do every day—creating engaging, simulation-based learning that helps leaders practice and refine their skills—continues to make a meaningful mark in the industry.
Building on Last Year's Milestone
This honor carries extra weight because of the road that got us here. Insight Experience spent 2022 and 2024 on Training Industry's Watch List for Experiential Learning Technologies before earning a spot on the Top 20 list in 2025. Landing on the Top 20 again in 2026 tells us that shift reflects steady growth, continued investment in our simulation platform, and the ongoing trust our clients place in our programs.
What Makes Experiential Learning So Powerful
"The organizations recognized on this year's Top 20 Experiential Learning Technologies list are pushing the boundaries of how workplace learning is designed and delivered," said Jalen Banks, market research analyst at Training Industry, Inc. "By leveraging immersive technologies, interactive simulations and experiential learning environments, these companies are helping learners develop critical skills through practice and application while enabling organizations to improve training effectiveness, reduce risk and support long-term workforce development."
At Insight Experience, our approach has always been rooted in experiential business simulations. By immersing leaders in realistic scenarios that mirror the complexity of their daily roles, we create space for practice, reflection, and growth. This recognition from Training Industry reinforces our belief that experiential methods are among the most effective ways to prepare leaders to navigate today's business environment.
Looking Ahead
We are proud to be in the company of other innovators on this list, and we remain committed to pushing the boundaries of what experiential learning can achieve. From integrating AI-powered insights that pair with human judgment into our simulation platform to launching SimLabs, a new self-directed, facilitator-free simulation format, our goal is to continue designing learning experiences that are transformative and results-driven.
This recognition is a milestone, but more importantly, it's a reflection of the trust our clients place in us and the creativity of our team. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. We're excited for what comes next!
