Integration
Arythmatic + Workday
Sync employee data automatically between Workday and Arythmatic
Last Updated: April 2026
Connect Arythmatic with Workday to automatically sync employee profiles, departments, and roles. Auto-enroll new hires in onboarding courses and track training completion alongside HR records.
Why Connect Workday with Your LMS?
Organizations using Workday as their HR system of record face a persistent disconnect between employee lifecycle events and training management. When new hires join, HR teams must manually notify L&D to create accounts and assign onboarding courses, often causing delays of days or even weeks before employees can access critical training. Department transfers and role changes go unnoticed by the LMS, leaving employees enrolled in irrelevant courses while missing training required for their new position. Terminations create security risks when former employees retain LMS access long after leaving. This manual coordination between HR and learning systems wastes hundreds of administrative hours annually, introduces compliance gaps in regulated industries, and creates a poor first-day experience for new employees who should be productive from day one.

Popular Automation Workflows
When HR adds a new hire in Workday, Arythmatic automatically creates their learner profile with correct department, role, and manager data, then enrolls them in the role-specific onboarding learning path.
When an employee moves departments in Workday, Arythmatic updates their group membership, removes irrelevant training assignments, and enrolls them in department-specific required courses.
When an employee is terminated in Workday, their Arythmatic account is immediately deactivated, active enrollments are closed, and training records are archived for compliance retention.
When an employee receives a new job title in Workday, Arythmatic evaluates role-based training rules and assigns any newly required compliance or skills training automatically.
When a learner completes a course or certification in Arythmatic, the completion date, score, and certificate details are written back to their Workday employee profile.
When a compliance training deadline is approaching and the employee has not completed the course, Arythmatic uses the Workday manager hierarchy to send escalation notifications up the chain.
