The July 2026 Release: See What's New

The July 2026 Release: See What's New

Is your workforce data spread across disconnected systems, making it hard to know who's actually ready for what's next? The July 2026 Cornerstone release closes that gap, turning talent growth into measurable workforce readiness.

Watch this on-demand session with Baxter Waldron and Kristie Willix to see the release in action. You'll see how AI-powered Role Readiness Academies build critical-role skills through precurated, structured programs, so you can prepare employees for first-time management, senior leadership, and customer service roles with confidence.

You'll also see how managers get real support instead of more admin, with the new Performance Review Assistant and Goals Assistant. These tools synthesize review data into clear, actionable insights and proactively flag at-risk goals, so managers can coach with confidence rather than starting every conversation from a blank page.

The session also covers what's new in social learning, with structured cohorts and enhanced communities, plus compliance automation through Training Models that manage certifications at scale, saving your team the manual chasing.

Watch now to see what's changed, and what it means for your team.

  • Role Readiness Academies give employees precurated, AI-powered learning paths for critical roles, with built-in practice and readiness measurement, not just course completion
  • Managers get real support, not more admin, through the Performance Review Assistant and Goals Assistant — AI prepares the groundwork while managers still own the conversation
  • Compliance and social learning both got real upgrades — Training Models manage certifications at scale, and new structured cohorts support collaborative, topic-based learning
