Introducing the Drillster Connector for Cornerstone LMS

Blog / News | 23-09-25

Drillster, together with eSkillz — a global leader in learning technology services and a long-standing Cornerstone partner — proudly presents the Drillster Connector for Cornerstone LMS. This integration automates the full learning workflow, from user enrollment to performance reporting, while preserving Drillster’s proven adaptive learning methodology.

Key Benefits for Your Organization

eSkillz has been a Cornerstone integration and service partner for many years, and their knowledge and expertise on the Cornerstone LMS, in combination with their in-depth understanding of the Drillster adaptive learning platform, made them the ideal partner to build and service the Drillster Connector for the Cornerstone LMS. This connector provides the following benefits to organizations: 
 

  • Reduce Administrative Work
    Manual tasks like assigning modules, tracking completions, or updating learner statuses are automated. The connector manages the full workflow consistently, securely, and efficiently.
  • Enhance Learning Impact at Scale
    Drillster’s adaptive learning meets Cornerstone’s enterprise-grade LMS, delivering personalized learning experiences directly within the environment employees already know.
  • Ensure Data Accuracy and Compliance
    Real-time synchronization keeps all learning data aligned across platforms. With built-in encryption, audit logging, and GDPR-compliant protocols, your data is safe and reliable.
  • Accelerate Time-to-Competency
    Adaptive algorithms focus on knowledge gaps, reinforce retention, and alert managers when intervention is needed, helping teams learn faster and smarter.

Core capabilities in action

Through the joint efforts of eSkillz and Drillster, the connector delivers an integration that feels native to Cornerstone LMS users. User management is unified: employees are automatically provisioned, assigned to the right courses, and updated through every stage of their lifecycle. Single Sign-On provides effortless access, while embedded Drillster players allow learners to complete drills, tests, and courses without ever leaving the LMS.

Real-time synchronization ensures that progress, completions, and performance data flow directly back into Cornerstone transcripts, giving managers a clear and up-to-date view of their teams. New Drillster content can be published directly into the Cornerstone catalog, complete with synced metadata, so the learning library expands dynamically as organizations scale.

Built on a secure technical architecture

From the start, the eSkillz–Drillster partnership focused on delivering a connector that meets the highest standards of performance and security. The solution is designed on an API-first architecture, using both Drillster and Cornerstone APIs to deliver fast and reliable data flows. Event-driven notifications and webhooks keep the systems in sync in real time, whether an organization has hundreds or tens of thousands of learners.

Security is embedded by design. End-to-end encryption, GDPR-compliant data handling, detailed audit logging, and role-based access control ensure that sensitive learning information remains safe while giving organizations the confidence to scale their training programs globally.

The value of partnership

This connector is more than just technology — it’s the outcome of close collaboration. eSkillz’s expertise in learning system integrations, combined with Drillster’s proven adaptive learning methodology and Cornerstone’s robust LMS capabilities, makes this a solution organizations can trust.
