Central Tech was recently named to the Top Workplace USA 2022 list for companies with 125-349 employees. The award is based on feedback from an employee engagement survey conducted by an independent, third-part research company, Engergage, and celebrates companies that prioritize creating a people-centered culture and giving employees a voice.

This honor marks the first time Central Tech has been recognized as a Top Workplace in the U.S., and the seventh time the school has been recognized as a Top Workplace in the state of Oklahoma since 2015.

Of the 84 companies that made the Oklahoma list, only 10 earned a more elite accomplishment as being among the best workplaces in the nation. Results were calculated by comparing the survey’s research-based statements, including 15 Culture Drivers that are proven to predict high performance against industry benchmarks.

“Companies need to authentically represent their brand to job-seekers,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “The employee experience needs to be on the mission-critical list. Leaders who embrace a people-first culture will benefit greatly. By giving employees a voice and showcasing your authentic culture through employer branding, organizations can attract those job seekers who complement their culture. Culture drives performance”
