Cornerstone Joins Forces with Sandler Training to Launch Exclusive Sales Training Content Subscription

Cornerstone OnDemand (NASDAQ:CSOD), a global leader in cloud-based learning, talent management and talent experience software, and Sandler Training, the premier sales development provider, today announced an exclusive sales enablement offering that will help companies build and hone their sales skills with short, digestible e-learning content.

Organizations around the world are realizing the critical role that sales enablement functions play in helping their sales teams close more deals. In fact, the number of companies with dedicated sales enablement functions has increased by 79 percent in the past two years, and companies with established sales training content strategies have significantly higher win rates and better customer relationships.¹

The new e-learning subscription offering, Content Anytime Sales & Customer Relationships – available through the Cornerstone Content Anytime subscription service – is a collection of sales enablement courses that have been jointly created by Cornerstone and Sandler Training. The subscription features more than 125 Microlearning® courses – short, digestible e-learning content – that cover Sandler’s award-winning sales methodology, The Selling System, and teach critical sales techniques, such as negotiating, prospecting and the psychology behind successful salespeople. The 125 Microlearning® courses come curated into 11 Learning Playlists that learners can leverage as a quick, simple starting point for building new skills.

"Online training is a major component of a successful sales enablement strategy, particularly for organizations with geographically dispersed teams,” said Josh Schwede, VP of Content, Cornerstone. "By partnering with Sandler Training, we are able to provide our clients with world-class training content that will empower them to be even more competitive and close more deals.”

"At Sandler Training, we are always exploring new technology to keep ahead of the curve.
