Everything you should be doing right now with your Cornerstone platform…

Content

• Test it: to ensure it works on relevant devices
• Track it: measure consumption in correlation to competency/skill
• Trace it: monitor adoption of this content and adoption of similar titles (see what we did here…?)
• Curate it: pull it into meaningful playlists and curricula
• Promote key themes: Health and Safety at home, wellbeing and mental health should all be featuring topics
• Re-boarding curricula: support those returning from furlough with a helpful curriculum to settle them back into work

Data

• Clean it: ensure people data is up to date and accurate
• Fix it: ensure data feeds are working correctly
• Analyse it: what does your data tell you about trends in your organisation i.e. Learning, development etc
• Slice it: set up reports for managers so that they can view key data for their teams easily
• Dice it: get creative with the way you present data and create colourful dashboards for managers showing last user access, training status summary, goal progress etc
• 2.0 it: Reporting 2.0 will become the default analytics tool next year, so start using it now

Engagement

• Check-in: set up Check-ins to record 1:1s and coaching sessions with employees
• Promote: utilise Marketing Emails to promote new content and company initiatives
• Connect: encourage collaboration via Connect Communities
• Share: curate playlists and allow users to curate playlists to share with each other
• Entice: encourage return visits to your platform, and increase content consumption by reviewing and refreshing your Welcome Page

In simple terms: if you’re not doing the above you’re missing a trick, not to mention a huge opportunity to successfully engage and develop a virtual workforce. You’ve made a significant investment in a powerful platform – make the most of it and realise the full potential of Cornerstone.
