I lead the Talent Development team at a global insurance carrier.  We currently use Cornerstone's LMS and are evaluating Workday's LMS.  Has anyone recently chosen between these two LMS/ LXP providers?  Would any Workday LMS customers be open to a brief discussion about how it's going?

We do use Cornerstone, but have not done a recent review of Workday, as we are on Oracle client for our primary HR systems.

Best of luck with the selection and integration of your new LMS. Having worked extensively with platforms like Cornerstone and Sumtotal (recently acquired by Cornerstone), and managing complex integrations, I’ve learned that no LMS will perfectly meet your needs out of the box. Customization is often required, and it can be a challenging process.

My recommendation is to conduct a thorough "as-is" and "to-be" analysis, considering your organization's people and learning aspirations for at least the next 2 years. This will help in evaluating and selecting the right tool. Pay close attention to the potential plug-ins, xAPI compatibility, and learning analytics features, as these elements are crucial and can become significant challenges later on.

Although I don't have direct experience with Workday's LMS, I hope these insights help guide your decision-making process before onboarding the tool.

Hi, what is important is that Workday LMS does not provide any content. It is only the front end. Unless you buy content, it is an empty shell. So as part of our Workday roadmap, we decommissioned our existing LMS and purchased LinkedIn Learning to be connected to Workday LMS so that there is a direct link between people's objectives and development and learning & development and all is one system and tool but Workday is just the tool, not giving you any content, that still needs to be purchased or build.
