Expert LMS and Sona Announce Seamless Integration to Connect Learning and Operations

At Expert LMS, we’re excited to introduce a new integration with Sona - a leading workforce management (WFM) solution for frontline teams. 

Expert LMS and Sona Announce Seamless Integration to Connect Learning and Operations

This partnership brings together Sona’s strengths in scheduling, attendance, and team communication with Expert LMS’s robust training and learning management capabilities. The result? A unified flow that helps teams learn, perform and grow more effectively. 

Why this integration matters 

Organisations often operate with separate tools for managing staff and delivering training. This fragmentation can slow onboarding, complicate compliance tracking and make it harder to align skills with roles. Our integration tackles these challenges head-on by: 

  • Enabling skills-based rostering: because training data is now visible to the operations side, managers can create rosters based on verified qualifications and competencies.
  • Accelerating onboarding: new hires gain immediate access to role-specific courses the moment they join, reducing time to productivity.
  • Improving visibility and compliance: connects learning progress, certification status and performance metrics to support auditing, reporting, and continuous improvement.
  • Streamlining workflows: thanks to our next-gen API connection, the handoff between scheduling and training becomes seamless - no manual export/import, no double entry. 

Together, we’re reducing friction between “who is scheduled” and “who is ready.” 

What Sona had to say 

“At Sona we are always delighted to launch new partnerships & in this case it’s no different. Our plan has always been to work closely with the leading partners in our key verticals & this continues to gather pace. This integration brings that vision to life in new and meaningful ways. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to see the impact this collaboration will bring!” 
Russ Kenyon, Head of Partnerships, Sona 

What this means for our customers 

By connecting Expert LMS and Sona, organisations can: 

  • Roster with confidence by scheduling staff based on verified qualifications.
  • Speed up onboarding with role-specific learning available from day one.
  • Improve compliance by aligning training progress directly with workforce operations.
  • Reduce admin time with seamless API-driven workflows that cut out duplication.
  • This integration helps businesses make smarter decisions, keep their people safe and supported, and drive real results from their training programs. 

Our perspective at Expert LMS 

We believe that learning works best when it’s part of everyday operations, not an afterthought. Partnering with Sona makes this vision a reality, empowering organisations to build stronger teams where skills, schedules and success go hand in hand. 

This is more than just an integration - it’s a step toward redefining how organisations connect learning with work. And we’re only just getting started.
