Once training is complete in Workday Learning, the real question begins: did it actually land? Cognexo closes that gap, adding an advanced assessment and knowledge validation layer so you always know what your people actually know.
Cognexo brings advanced assessment capability directly into Workday Learning — without disrupting the learner flow. Assessments trigger automatically after course completion or run as standalone knowledge checks — so you know what your people know, and what they don't.
Build assessments from your existing Workday Learning content in minutes using AI. Multiple question formats — scenario-based, drag-and-drop, T/F and more.
Establish a clear baseline of competence immediately after training, at onboarding, or ahead of a major change — so you know exactly what your people don't know and can intervene quickly.
Assessment scores, capability gaps and competence trends surface in dashboards built so any leader can act on the data immediately — and feed directly back into Workday Learning.
Works across any device for desk-based and frontline workers alike. A fast, friction-free experience that people actually complete.
Tailor assessments by role, team, department or initiative. Scoring thresholds, question types and content all configurable to your requirements.
Cognexo supports a wide range of assessment types — including performance and competency-based testing, technical skills validation and many more. Our platform is designed to map to the Kirkpatrick model, so you can effectively measure the true impact of your Workday Learning programmes at every level.
In partnership with Workday, Cognexo can provide certification that proves candidates have the required skills — giving individuals recognised evidence of competence and giving organisations the confidence that capability has been genuinely verified.
Cognexo streamlines all of that — updates happen instantly, inside Workday, with no re-packaging or manual upload.

Cognexo integrates natively with Workday Learning — no complex implementation, no disruption to existing workflows, no new environment for your people to navigate.


Workday Learning is a powerful platform for delivering and managing training. But like every LMS, it has a fundamental blind spot — it tells you who completed a course, not whether they understood it, retained it or can apply it in their role.
The result is an organisation that believes its people are capable because training was completed. In reality, gaps remain invisible until they surface as performance problems, compliance failures or costly errors.
Cognexo closes that gap - adding a continuous assessment and knowledge validation layer directly inside Workday Learning, so you always know what your people actually know.
Identifying knowledge gaps after an assessment is only part of the picture. Cognexo automatically triggers targeted interventions the moment a low score is detected — boosting performance and embedding learning without manual effort.
Assessment score falls below threshold. Cognexo pinpoints the specific knowledge gap — by topic, question type, role or individual.
Targeted follow-up content deploys automatically via Teams, Slack, email or the Cognexo app — specific to the gap, not a repeat of the full course.
Spaced repetition keeps knowledge sharp long after the course ends. Less than 2 minutes per day — preventing the forgetting curve from undoing your Workday Learning investment.
Result logged. No blanket retraining — people who demonstrate competence aren't sent content they don't need. Time and resource focused where it actually matters.
Where Cognexo Develop is enabled, bite-sized content addressing specific gaps can deploy automatically. Manager notified. Progress tracked over time.
Where Cognexo Develop is enabled, an adaptive learning sequence deploys immediately — targeted to the specific gap, not a repeat of the full course. Reassessment scheduled. Leader dashboard updated in real time.
Confirm new hires have retained and understood core knowledge before they progress in their development programme. Reduce time-to-competence and identify gaps early — before they affect performance or the employee experience.
Most organisations begin their Cognexo journey inside Workday with assessments and knowledge validation — and see immediate value from day one.
For organisations that want to go further, Cognexo's full platform extends beyond Assess to include Survey, Develop and Broadcast — adding confidence measurement, behaviour reinforcement andcommunications tracking alongside your Workday assessment capability.
Cognexo integrates natively with Workday Learn via a secure API connection. Integration enables bi-directional data exchange — user data, training completions and assessment scores flow automatically between both platforms. SSO means employees use their existing Workday credentials throughout.
Most organisations are live within days using Cognexo's AI-powered content creation tools. For larger enterprises with more complex Workday configurations, full implementation typically takes two to four weeks. Our team manages the process end to end.
No. Cognexo assessments are triggered automatically within the Workday Learn flow and results report back directly into Workday dashboards. Employees and managers stay inside the environment they already use.
Yes. Cognexo is fully customisable — question types, competency frameworks, role-specific content and scoring thresholds can all be configured to match your organisation's needs. Our AI-powered content creation tools also make it fast to build assessments from your existing training materials.
Customers typically see improved training effectiveness, reduced compliance risk and faster time-to-competence for new hires and change programmes. Our ROI calculator can give you a tailored estimate based on your organisation's size and use case.
Yes. Cognexo is built to enterprise security standards and the Workday integration uses secure, authenticated API connections throughout. Full details are available in our security documentation.
Yes. Survey, Develop and Broadcast all integrate with Workday and can be added at any point. You're not locked into a specific configuration — the platform grows with your needs.
Cognexo doesn't just give you better insight. It gives you a clear, actionable understanding of where knowledge gaps actually exist — and the tools to close them before they become performance problems.
