"I'm thrilled we won this award. Security is an important subject for any organization, and I'm glad we were able to help STERIS better train their employees to meet and exceed federal standards. Working with the STERIS team was a very positive experience," said Jo Ellen Frost, who was the instructional designer and storyboard writer from Radcom.

Bob Warren, STERIS's Chief Security Officer, added that, "In our industry, security is of the utmost importance, not only to comply with government requirements, but also to keep our people, property and information secure." Kelly Chickos, STERIS's Manager of Learning & Development, stated, "We are very committed to maintaining our culture of safety and security at STERIS.
