Jann Gillingham of Ellucian, the 100,000th student, was presented with a $1,000 check—representing a penny for each attendee—in honor of her role in achieving the milestone. Gillingham took Pragmatic Marketing's Foundations, Market and Launch courses and said they provided the "practical, just-in-time assistance" she needed for a product launch. She added, "Everything was absolutely fantastic. The trainer, the materials, the location, the food—the total package."

This year, which also marks Pragmatic Marketing's 20th anniversary, the company has made the Inc. 5000 list for the seventh time, been named a finalist in both min's Editorial & Design Awards and Folio's Ozzie Awards and earned a spot as one of the Phoenix Business Journal's 2013 Best Places to Work in the Valley.

"It's been a banner year for us," said Craig Stull, CEO and founder of Pragmatic Marketing. "When I started the company 20 years ago, I thought that only about 1,000 people needed product management and marketing training. I've never been this pleased to be so wrong. It's an honor that people like Jann Gillingham continue to rely on us for their training needs."
