Educational Systems Federal Credit Union, which has a branch in California, Maryland, serving St. Mary’s County, has been named a 2026 Top Workplaces Remote Work Award winner by TopWorkplaces.com.
The award is based entirely on employee feedback gathered through a confidential third-party survey administered by Energage LLC, an employee engagement technology company. The survey measures the employee experience, including whether workers feel respected and supported, enabled to grow and empowered to do their jobs well.
Girado Smith, President and CEO of Educational Systems Federal Credit Union, said the recognition reflects the organization’s approach to workplace culture.
“At Educational Systems Federal Credit Union, we are committed to creating a workplace where our Ambassadors feel supported, connected and empowered to do meaningful work,” Smith said. “This recognition reflects the flexibility, collaboration and shared purpose that help our teams serve members and communities with excellence, whether working remotely or in person.”
The Top Workplaces program recognizes people-first organizations nationwide based on employee survey data rather than employer self-nomination or third-party audit.
Educational Systems Federal Credit Union has served the education community since 1955. The credit union holds $1.3 billion in assets across 13 branches and serves more than 80,000 members, including school employees, students, parents and individuals working for education-related organizations. It is headquartered in Greenbelt, Maryland.
