Does Your LMS Integrate with Skillsoft?

As technology evolves at lightning speed, agile skills have become the new workforce currency — fueling not only individual career growth but also organizational success. This shift has placed Learning and Development (L&D) at the forefront, with businesses turning to innovative solutions to equip their teams for the challenges ahead.

To stay competitive, organizations need tools that empower continuous learning — and that’s why a Learning Management System (LMS) is indispensable.

An LMS is a platform designed to efficiently create, deliver, and track employee training and development programs. Functioning as the virtual "training brain" of your organization, it’s a critical cornerstone of modern learning strategies. In fact, 72% of businesses worldwide use one today.

And, it's an investment that offers powerful benefits: A recent study by the Brandon Hall Group found that companies utilizing robust LMS solutions can expect an average ROI of 353%, along with 40% higher employee engagement. These figures highlight more than just financial returns —they reflect the transformative impact of streamlined learning.

But here’s the catch: that virtual brain needs solid connections to function at its best. That’s where LMS integration comes in — streamlining training to be faster, smarter, and more effective by syncing your learning ecosystem into a seamless operation. Without it, businesses risk fragmented tech stacks, manual data entry, and disconnected workflows, resulting in wasted time, lackluster engagement, and diminished productivity.

LMS integration is the process of connecting your LMS to other systems, platforms, or tools to create a unified learning experience. Think of it as plugging your LMS into a comprehensive network of resources. 

When your LMS syncs with tools like content libraries, HR systems, and analytics platforms, learning becomes a smooth, efficient, and engaging experience. Integration can also automate manual tasks like syncing employee data, enrolling learners in courses, and tracking learner progress, freeing your L&D team to focus on your most important asset: your people.

Here’s why LMS integration is crucial:

• Streamline Workflows: Simplify data entry and automate processes like course assignments and progress tracking.
• Engage Learners: Provide employees with personalized, easily accessible learning paths tailored to their roles and goals.
• Level Up Analytics: Get crystal-clear insights into training impact with robust reporting tools.
• Scale with Ease:  Easily add new tools, systems, or content libraries as your organization grows.

Your LMS should integrate with a variety of systems for different benefits:

• HR Systems: Sync employee data for seamless enrollment and tracking.
• Content Libraries: Access learning materials without leaving your LMS, and easily add new content and courses.
• Single Sign-On (SSO): Simplify logins for enhanced security and convenience.
• Web Conferencing Tools: Bring live learning to the platform with webinars or virtual classrooms.
• Payroll and Compensation: Track and reward employees for completing training programs, certifications, or learning milestones
• Business Intelligence Tools: Merge data streams for powerful learning and ROI insights.

The integration of Skillsoft's engaging learning assets with the comprehensive learning administration capabilities of your LMS offers the best of both worlds. The result can dramatically increase usage by delivering the best possible learning experience for your employees. 

Our content integration solution utilizes eLearning standards such as AICC to ensure the best possible compatibility with a range of Learning Management Systems (LMS). Wrapped around these standards are a set of tools and technologies that simplify the administrative effort and ensure a great content experience for learners.

These tools focus on three core aspects of LMS/content deployment: content management, content launch and consumption, and tracking learning activity and completion.
