Think of the modern workplace. Every leader is under pressure to do more with less. Every employee is being asked to learn faster, pivot harder, and somehow stay motivated while the pace of change doubles every quarter. The world of work didn’t just evolve, it accelerated. And while everyone talks about AI as the answer, too many organizations are still stuck in neutral. They’ve bought and implemented technology but are not seeing impact. Because growth isn’t just about automating tasks -it’s about amplifying human potential.
Cornerstone Galaxy creates an environment where people don’t just keep up with change, they drive it. That’s what the November 2025 release is designed to do. This isn’t just another feature drop. It’s the next evolution of how organizations connect people, power experiences, and accelerate growth, with AI that works for humans, not instead of them.
From AI Overload to AI Empowerment: Equip your people to work smarter, not just faster
AI should be a teammate, one that helps your people make better decisions, learn faster, and act with confidence. Our new AI Fluency playlists do just that. Preparing your employees to work confidently with AI, these playlists provide personalized, hands-on learning designed to help employees at every level build AI skills they can actually use.
Powered by leading providers: TED, Skillable, Udacity, Madecraft, Simplilearn, and Packt, these courses empower your employees to apply AI in real-world scenarios, allowing them to take the step from just consuming AI, to creating with it.
And because learning doesn’t stop at the desk,Cornerstone Immerse adds a new voice mode (coming this December), turning your commutes, breaks, and in-between moments into personalized coaching opportunities.
Power Your People’s Growth with a Mobile Experience That’s Uniquely Yours.
When mobile experiences fall short, your people feel in. In a world where every moment counts, Cornerstone makes mobile learning connected, branded, and intuitive again.
With the new White-Label Galaxy App, you can launch a fully branded mobile experience that feels uniquely yours. This allows you to deploy your brand's own unique mobile app, while still being powered by Cornerstone Galaxy’s intelligence and insights.Whether you’re engaging a retail associate or a remote analyst, every interaction reflects your brand’s identity and purpose.
And with the new AI visual search, learning becomes as intuitive as taking a picture. Simply snap a picture of a piece of equipment, manual, or workplace and Galaxy will instantly surface relevant safety trainings, instructional videos, compliance guides, and more.
Meanwhile, the new Galaxy App Profile brings your employees’ growth (skills, work experience, certificates, badges) journey into one unified view. Enhanced privacy controls give employees the power to show or hide what matters most, while new features like ratings, reviews, and following make learning more collaborative than ever.
For employees on-the-go, Cornerstone Talent Marketplace is now fully accessible on mobile.Allowing your people to explore new roles, projects, and career paths anytime, anywhere.

For organizations ready to go deeper, Cornerstone Transform helps you build the skills-based architecture to connect talent planning, job design, and workforce strategy — ensuring that your company’s growth is built on more than instinct. It’s built on evidence.
Learning in-the-flow of work
We’re expanding the power of AI to where work happens. With Cornerstone for Agentforce on Salesforce AppExchange and Cornerstone for Microsoft Copilot in the Copilot agent store, employees can access real-time learning and knowledge discovery right in the tools they use every day. Whether it’s a sales rep getting in-the-moment guidance to close deals faster or an employee upskilling within Microsoft 365, Cornerstone’s AI agents bring growth into the flow of work—helping teams learn, perform, and deliver value at the new speed of business.
Accelerate Coaching and Growth with Data-Driven Insights
Performance conversations shouldn’t be about checking boxes. They should be about unlocking potential. Cornerstone Elevate does just that. Connecting performance, growth, and opportunity in one flow, leaders are able to guide every employee’s development with clarity and impact.
AI-powered job recommendations surface the next best steps for career growth, while succession metrics built into the review process help identify and prepare future leaders.
Manager-centric dashboards bring it all together, giving leaders a thorough view into growth opportunities and succession readiness. It’s coaching at scale, powered by data and designed for humans.

From Creation to Curation: Power-up your Content Strategy
Learning leaders face a familiar paradox: more content than ever, but harder than ever to create and deliver the right learning at the right time.
The November release introduces unified content creation in Content Manager, simplifying content creation by allowing admins to create and manage learning materials, online courses, and curricula from a single-entry point. At the same time, enhanced filters and industry insights streamline workflows and drive smarter decision-making.
And in Cornerstone Content Studio, new AI-assisted curation tools surface the most relevant content for each learner based on behaviors, role, and skills.
Expand What’s Possible with Cornerstone Extend
With updates to Cornerstone Extend, organizations can now use Global Single Sign On to bring Galaxy experiences into the tools and systems they already use, making it easier for employees to access learning and development anywhere they work.
Cornerstone continues to expand its Extend offerings for customers, bringing on new partners including:

With AI that enhances, not replaces. With skills intelligence that informs every decision. With experiences that feel personal, intuitive, and inspiring.
The Cornerstone Galaxy November 2025 Release is more than an update, it’s a commitment. To help every organization build a smarter, more connected, and more human world of work.
