Integrations allow you to connect your existing software applications to your AG5 system and exchange information. This streamlines your workflow, reduces workload, and minimizes the risk of manual errors.
AG5 often is and can be integrated with your Single sign-on identity provider (SSO), your Human Resource Management System (HRMS) and your Learning Management System (LMS). Integration with planning software is also possible.
Single Sign-On (SSO) is an authentication and authorization method that enables users to access AG5 using their own identity provider, eliminating the need for multiple usernames and passwords. This simplifies login for employees, reducing security risks. AG5's SSO Integrations adhere to the SAML2 standard.
Integrating your HRMS or Human Resource Management System (also known as a Human Resources Information System or HRIS) with AG5 automates the synchronization of employee data.
The primary purpose of doing so is to ensure the accuracy of HR data within AG5, thereby eliminating the need for manual management of such data. This integration offers the advantage that when defining your organization's training requirements in AG5, you no longer have to manually handle:
Employee turnover
Employee absences
Employee job and position changes
This provides managers and training experts with the reassurance that their HR data is always up to date.
Furthermore, AG5 offers the capability to maintain not only standard HR roles and structures but also operational roles and structures, ensuring the accuracy and completeness of your training requirements model.
This integration is typically configured through an API connection or sFTP upload.
What HRMS data can be synchronized with AG5?
Basic employee information (first name, last name)
Job information (HR role, contract type, contract dates, leave dates, manager)
Organizational structure (department, function, legal structure, etc.)
The primary purpose of integrating an Learning Management System, or LMS, with AG5 is to ensure seamless access to organizational training, courses, and e-learning materials while defining training requirements. By centralizing these needs in AG5, alongside other operational structures managed by departments like operations, it streamlines the organization's training process.
AG5 then serves as the central hub for all training requirements, enhancing assignment capabilities. When training requirements align with HR and operational structures in AG5, employees are automatically assigned relevant training in the LMS, ensuring accurate allocation.
Data synchronized from the LMS to AG5 includes the following skills data:
Training items
E-learning
Curricula
Competencies
You can also configure the LMS integration to assign required training in your LMS. The assignment data that will be exchanged is:
Employee info
Required training info
Additionally, the LMS integration can be configured to assign required training and exchange assignment data, including employee and training information.
Upon completion of training in the LMS, the following achieved training data can be synced back to AG5 through the same integration:
Training item results
E-learning completions
Curricula status
Competency achievements
LMS integrations with AG5 utilize an API or the LTI standard.
In addition to the common integrations mentioned above, AG5 can also integrate with other software, like planning organizations.
For example, for some organizations, incorporating employees' skills into work planning is crucial, especially as it concerns quality, health, environment, or regulatory requirements.
To streamline planning and minimize time and effort wastage, they integrate AG5 with their planning systems.
This ensures access to employees' up-to-date skills data in their planning software, reducing human error when assessing employee skill sets during the planning process.
What planning data can be synchronized with AG5?
Employee information
Skill information
