L&D team spending hours every month manually exporting completion data from the LMS and importing it into the HRMS because the platform doesn't have a connector for your HR system, so the training record and the HR record are always out of sync?
Compliance training programme where the LMS records completion but can't produce the evidence format the regulator requires -- no assessment scores, no time-spent data, and no certificate with the specific fields the inspector asks for?
Corporate Learning Platform Development
Corporate LMS platforms are built for standard employment. When your organisation has unusual role structures, complex compliance training requirements, or an HRMS that the platform has no connector for, you end up with a system that doesn't provision learners correctly, doesn't produce the compliance evidence the regulator wants, and requires the L&D team to manually maintain what should be automatic.
We build custom corporate learning platforms for enterprises and training providers whose L&D requirements need a system designed around their specific workforce, compliance obligations, and HRMS -- not adapted from a generic corporate LMS that assumes standard employment and standard compliance requirements.
SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and xAPI content delivery with completion and score data recorded against the learner record
HRMS integration for automatic learner provisioning, role-based course assignment, and completion data sync
Compliance training tracking with assessment scores, time-spent data, and certificate generation for regulatory audit
Manager dashboard showing team completion rates, overdue mandatory training, and individual learner progress
RaftLabs builds custom corporate learning platforms for enterprises and training providers whose L&D requirements -- SCORM and xAPI content delivery, HRMS integration for learner provisioning and completion data, compliance training evidence records, and manager visibility of team learning -- go beyond what Cornerstone, Docebo, or a standard corporate LMS can handle cleanly. Most corporate learning platform projects deliver in 12 to 16 weeks at a fixed, agreed cost.

When the corporate LMS doesn't fit the compliance requirement
Corporate learning platforms have a specific failure mode that standard LMS platforms are prone to: they record course completions but not the evidence that regulators, auditors, and employment tribunals actually ask for. A completion flag showing that an employee clicked through a module is not the same as evidence that they engaged with the content, passed an assessment, and received a certificate with their name and the completion date. In regulated industries -- financial services, healthcare, construction, food safety -- the gap between what the LMS records and what the regulator requires is a compliance risk.
We build corporate learning platforms for organisations whose compliance training requirements, HRMS integration needs, or learning pathway complexity require a system designed around their specific workforce. We understand the SCORM and xAPI standards that corporate learning content is built on, the HRMS integration patterns that provision learners and sync completion data, and the compliance evidence requirements of the regulated industries we serve. We design the platform to produce the right evidence records from the start rather than retrofitting compliance reporting onto a system that wasn't designed for it.
What we build
SCORM and xAPI content delivery
Content delivery engine built to the SCORM 1.2, SCORM 2004, and xAPI specifications so courses produced by Articulate Storyline, Adobe Captivate, iSpring, or any other SCORM-compliant authoring tool launch correctly and return completion and score data to the platform. SCORM data recorded against the learner's course record -- the completion status, the score, the time spent, the bookmark for returning learners, and any custom data the SCORM package sends. xAPI statement capture for organisations using xAPI to track learning experiences beyond traditional SCORM content -- mobile learning, simulations, performance support tools, and informal learning events recorded as xAPI statements alongside the formal course completions. Learning Record Store (LRS) integration for organisations with an existing LRS where all learning events should be consolidated. Content upload and packaging tools for L&D teams who create their own SCORM packages and need to upload and test them without developer involvement.
HRMS integration and learner provisioning
HRMS integration that provisions new employees automatically on the learning platform when they are added to the HR system -- the learner account created, the role-based learning pathways assigned, and the mandatory compliance training due dates calculated from the start date without any manual step from the L&D team. Role and location data from the HRMS used to assign the correct learning pathways for each employee -- the training required for a front-line retail employee differs from the training required for a head office finance role, and the HRMS integration ensures the right pathways are assigned based on the current role and location. Completion data exported back to the HRMS at the configured frequency so the HR record reflects the employee's training status without a manual export and import process. Leavers automatically deactivated on the learning platform when they are marked as leavers in the HRMS, with their completion history retained for the statutory period. We integrate with SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, BambooHR, ADP, HiBob, and custom HRMS platforms.
Compliance training and evidence management
Compliance training tracking designed around the evidence standard that applies to your industry -- not just a completion flag but the combination of completion date, time spent, assessment score, and certificate that regulators in financial services, healthcare, and construction actually ask for. Certificate generation with the employee's name, the course name, the completion date, the assessment score, the expiry date where the qualification has a validity period, and the issuing organisation's details -- the specific fields that each compliance programme requires configured in the certificate template. Recertification tracking for qualifications that expire and require renewal, with automated reminder emails sent to the employee and their manager before the expiry date and the overdue record flagged in the compliance dashboard. Evidence package export for regulatory audit -- the complete training record for all employees in scope, with completion dates, assessment scores, and certificates, in the format the audit requires. Bulk compliance status reporting showing which employees across the organisation are compliant, which are approaching expiry, and which are overdue -- the report that the compliance team monitors monthly.
Manager and team learning dashboard
Manager dashboard giving line managers visibility of their direct reports' learning status without requiring an L&D report request -- the completion status for each team member's mandatory and recommended training, the overdue items, and the upcoming renewals all visible in one view. Team completion rate reporting showing the percentage of the team who have completed each mandatory training module, so a manager can see at a glance whether the team is compliant without counting records manually. Individual learner progress view for managers who want to see a specific team member's full training history -- the courses completed, the scores achieved, and the certificates earned -- without accessing the full admin system. Manager-initiated enrolment for situations where a manager needs to assign a specific course to a team member based on a performance conversation or a role change. Escalation alerts sent to the manager when a team member's mandatory training is overdue past the configured threshold, so the manager can address the situation before it is escalated to HR.
Learning pathway management
Learning pathway configuration with the sequence of courses required for each role, level, and business unit in the organisation -- the induction pathway for new starters, the role-specific compliance pathway, the management development pathway, and the optional development paths for employees pursuing career progression. Prerequisite rules within pathways so foundational courses must be completed before advanced courses unlock, and the pathway sequence is enforced rather than left to the learner's discretion. Pathway progress tracking showing the employee's current position in each pathway they are enrolled in, the percentage complete, and the estimated completion date based on average time-to-complete for each course. Pathway version management for organisations that update their required training when procedures, regulations, or role requirements change, with existing employees completing the previous version and new starters or employees who haven't started assigned the current version. Skills framework integration for organisations mapping their learning pathways to a competency framework, with pathway completion contributing to the competency record alongside assessment results.
Reporting and L&D analytics
L&D reporting suite covering the metrics the L&D team, HR, and senior leadership need to understand the effectiveness and compliance status of the learning programme. Completion rate reporting by course, by department, by location, and by manager -- the view that allows the L&D team to identify where engagement is low and take action before mandatory training becomes overdue. Assessment performance analysis showing pass rates, score distributions, and the questions with the highest failure rates -- the data that informs whether the training content is producing the intended learning outcomes. Learning hours reporting for organisations that track total learning investment across the workforce, by department, or by individual -- the metric used for board-level reporting on L&D investment and for regulatory returns in sectors with minimum training hour requirements. Engagement analytics for self-directed learning pathways showing which optional courses attract the most enrolment, which have the highest completion rates, and which are started but not completed -- the data that guides content investment decisions. Custom report builder for L&D teams who need to produce reports combining multiple data dimensions without raising a request to the development team.
Frequently asked questions
Cornerstone and Docebo handle common corporate learning requirements well. Custom is the right answer when the HRMS doesn't have a connector to the platform, requiring a manual provisioning process that creates errors and delays; when the compliance training evidence requirements of your regulator can't be met by the platform's standard completion records; when the role and learning pathway structure is complex enough that the platform's assignment logic can't model it without significant configuration; or when the platform's licensing cost at your employee headcount exceeds the cost of a custom build. We tell clients honestly if a configured Docebo or a custom integration layer on top of their existing LMS would solve the problem before recommending a full custom build.
The integration approach depends on what your HRMS supports. Workday, SuccessFactors, and most modern HRMS platforms have REST APIs that support learner provisioning events -- new hire, role change, and leaver -- in near real time. Older platforms may support only scheduled file-based exchange. We build the integration using whatever the HRMS supports, with a reconciliation check that runs daily to catch any provisioning events the real-time integration may have missed. The provisioning events, the role and location data used for pathway assignment, and the completion data returned to the HRMS are all specified in the integration documentation before development begins.
The compliance evidence standard varies by industry and by regulator. We work with your compliance team during the discovery phase to specify exactly what evidence is required for each mandatory training programme -- the data fields that must appear on the certificate, the time-spent threshold, the assessment score requirement, the validity period, and the format of the bulk evidence export for audit. These requirements are implemented in the platform as first-class features rather than afterthoughts, so the compliance evidence produced by the platform meets the regulatory standard from day one rather than requiring retrospective fixes after an audit finding.
A corporate learning platform covering SCORM and xAPI delivery, HRMS integration for a single HR system, compliance tracking, and a manager dashboard typically runs $50,000 to $100,000. Adding a mobile app for field-based learners, multiple HRMS integrations, advanced learning pathway management, and a full L&D analytics suite typically brings the total to $80,000 to $180,000. We scope every project before pricing. Fixed cost only.
