Get L&D data insights on demand.
With Cornerstone data in Watershed, you can report on and analyze data to:
Evaluate
Monitor trends in Cornerstone as a whole, or drill down to look at particular curriculums, content items, exams, and even SCORM content.
Track
Keep track of assigned learning completions and monitor organizational, managerial, and individual compliance.
Measure
Deep dive into assessment and evaluation responses to identify knowledge gaps, or investigate how people feel about specific learning activities.

Compare, combine, and control your data to give insights to those who need it.
Using Watershed and Cornerstone, you can put reports in the hands of those who need them—enabling employees, managers, and people who traditionally would not have access to data to make decisions based on it.
You can filter and segment reports using people and organization data from Cornerstone and other sources as well as compare and combine these reports with data from other learning platforms. Use organizational hierarchy data from HRIS to permission-restrict data, so managers only see their own people’s data in dashboards.
Add detail beyond completions with data from other sources.
Using Watershed, you can integrate Cornerstone LMS data with data from other sources. As a result, you can see detailed data on learning activities that you may have integrated into Cornerstone—such as from LinkedIn, Pluralsight, O'Reilly, and Degreed.
This unlocks a previously unavailable level of detail. You are no longer limited to just completion data! For example, you can compare platform performance to drive continuous improvement in your learning programs, reduce costs, and improve efficiency.
The example report shows how search data from an LXP, such as Degreed, can tell you the popular topics learners are looking for. Compare this data to completion data from Cornerstone to identify the topics where searches result in low completion rates and the associated content that may need to be reviewed and improved.
How Do I Convince My Stakeholders?
The enhanced insights you get from connecting Watershed with Cornerstone allow you to continuously improve your learning programs and the quality that learners experience.
However, we know that getting buy-in from stakeholders can be challenging. That’s why we’ve put this handy guide together to get you moving:
How Does Watershed Work with Cornerstone?
Watershed has an established connector that connects to the Cornerstone API. This data is then pulled into your dashboards and reports, allowing instant access to insights around learner behavior, learning performance, and system usage. We’ll handle this process for you from start to finish, so you can sit back and relax while our data experts do their thing.
Gain insights across your entire learning ecosystem by combining your Cornerstone data with other data sources including:
- HRISs (e.g. Workday),
- LXPs (e.g. Degreed, Bridge Advanced Video), or
- Video Platforms (e.g. Kaltura).
What Data Is Included?
The Watershed-Cornerstone integration brings three datasets from Cornerstone:
