LRN has secured not one, not two, but TEN (10!) Telly Awards at the 43rd annual awards program honoring excellence in video and television across all screens. These videos were created to help employers effectively educate employees and address difficult workplace issues. Topics included content about sexual harassment prevention, reporting misconduct, and data protection and privacy. We are thrilled to have individual pieces win in multiple categories, as this recognition validates the quality of our work. 

What are the Telly Awards? 

Founded in 1979, the Telly Awards is a widely known and highly respected national and international competition that honors excellence in video and television across all screens. Receiving over 12,000 entries from all 50 US states and five continents, Telly Award winners represent work from some of the most respected advertising agencies, television stations, production companies, and publishers from around the world. 

Below is a summary of LRN’s work recognized at the 43rd Annual Telly Awards, which are also listed in The Telly Awards Gallery
