5 Quick Fixes to Boost Cornerstone OnDemand Adoption and Elevate Employee Experience

Working with Cornerstone OnDemand? EdCast? Saba? Great choice! But if you’re feeling like your adoption rates could use a lift, or your employees aren’t fully immersed in the experience, you’re not alone. Here are 5 quick fixes to help you get the most out of Cornerstone – making it not just another tool, but a game-changer for your organization. 💡
✨Make Access and Navigation Seamless
Success with Cornerstone starts with two essentials: a) employees must be drawn to the platform through consistent and engaging communication, and b) they need to know how to navigate it easily. A branded and intuitive user interface (UI) that provides a great user experience (UX) ensures that employees not only show up but keep coming back for more.
🎨 Personalize the Experience
A one-size-fits-all approach won’t cut it. Customize your Welcome Pages, Learner Home, Canvas, Workspaces, and even dashboards to reflect your company’s brand and speak directly to your employees. This personal touch not only makes the platform feel more like ‘home’ but also speeds up adoption rates. Remember, familiarity breeds contentment!
🛠️ Simplify Workflows

If your workflows are more complex than your morning coffee order, it’s time for a redesign. Streamlining tasks and processes not only makes Cornerstone more intuitive but can also skyrocket task completion rates. Less confusion, more completion – it’s a win-win!

📢 Engage Through Communication

Keep the conversation going! Regular, engaging communication about what’s new, what’s improved, and what’s upcoming can keep employees connected and interested. Think beyond the email – use in-app notifications, videos, or even a bit of gamification to pull your audience in.

🔍 Leverage User Feedback

Listening is key. Build a direct feedback channel (e.g. through a small sticky widget on each page) to gather feedback regularly to understand what’s working and what isn’t. Then, tweak your configurations accordingly. User feedback isn’t just about finding faults – it’s about continuously evolving to meet user needs and expectations.

🌟 Showcase the Benefits

Adoption improves when users see the value. Highlight how Cornerstone can help them grow in their careers, simplify their work, or just make their day a little bit easier. Whether it’s learning paths, career mobility, or performance management, make sure the benefits are clear and front and center.
