Case Study: abrdn achieves digital-first learning transformation with Cornerstone OnDemand

How a global investment firm transformed employee learning

abrdn, a global investment company, was transforming its business after the merger of Standard Life and Aberdeen Asset Management and needed to rethink its HR strategy and learning technology. To support that shift, ABDRN turned to Cornerstone OnDemand and its Cornerstone Content Anytime learning content to create a more digital-first learning experience for employees.

Cornerstone OnDemand helped abrdn centralize learning into a single hub, curate curriculum playlists, and integrate content across intranet, internal channels, Microsoft Teams, and its LMS. The result was a more user-friendly experience with streamlined costs and stronger engagement: by the first half of 2023, 55% of employees had actively engaged in structured learning.
