Risk Management Association Selected as a Winner in the 33rd Annual Telly Awards

Salt Lake City (June 27, 2012) – The Risk Management Association (RMA) has been named a bronze winner in the 33rd Annual Telly Awards for the video introduction to its RMA Ethics Training. Chosen from nearly 11,000 entries from all 50 states and numerous countries, the RMA entry stood out for its creativity and design.

The winning video, developed in partnership with Allen Communication Learning Services, is an introduction to the RMA Ethics Training Course that helps banking and nonbanking institutions instill high standards of business conduct that are essential to maintaining trust in their institutions.

The Telly Awards was founded in 1979 and is the premier award honoring outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, the finest video and film productions, and online commercials, video and films. Winners represent the best work from advertising agencies, production companies, television stations, cable operators, and corporate video departments in the world.

“The mission of the Telly Awards is to honor the very best in film and video,” said Ron Zamir, CEO of AllenComm. “We’re proud to have worked with RMA in developing these types of high quality, impactful video pieces as an element of their highly engaging training and development programs. Capturing and holding the attention of learners through cutting-edge multimedia elements helps these programs create a real impact on reducing risk for their members.”

“We’re extremely honored to receive this award, especially given the quality and diversity of the other entrants,” said Dom DiBernardi, associate director, Online Products and Programs, at RMA. “This award really underscores our dedication to providing the highest quality training and development tools available in the market today to our member organizations and their employees.”
