U.S. News' Top LMS for skills development
Delivered at scale with smart and proactive recommendations: Up-skill, re-skill, cross-skill
Award-winning platform
Traditional way vs. CYPHER’s approach
As roles, technology, and business priorities shift, traditional learning struggles to keep pace. Self-assessments can give an incomplete picture of what people actually know, while static, one-size-fits-all learning leaves critical skills gaps hidden and learners disengaged. Organizations need a faster, more personalized way to identify skill gaps, build capability, and keep people ready for what’s next.

How CYPHER accelerates skills development
Map learning to the capabilities your organization needs, understand what each person already knows, and automatically create a personalized path toward mastery. Learners get relevant learning, practice, assessment, and support based on their individual needs. Leaders get a clearer picture of capability across the organization. And L&D teams can continuously develop skills without continuously adding administration.
CYPHER goes beyond traditional ad-hoc and topic-based skills development by automating the entire skills lifecycle, from creation to mapping and validation, with exceptional precision, focusing on delivering a tailored learning experience.
CYPHER delivers personalization, precision, and proactive recommendations at scale, providing clear mastery levels for each skill and multiple assessments for reliable results.
Use from a wide range of assessment types to measure understanding and demonstrate proficiency, including quizzes, question banks, essays, self-assessments, and more.
The CYPHER platform's assessment options give you a clearer view of mastery so you can identify gaps and focus development where it will have the greatest impact.
Knowing something and being able to apply it are different things. Through CYPHER Agent: Practice, learners can practice and strengthen skills through real-life simulations and role-relevant experiences, helping turn knowledge into capability they can use on the job.
CYPHER Agent: Assess allows learners to test their knowledge on any topic through an AI-powered coaching session. Through a natural, interactive conversation, learners can demonstrate what they know, uncover knowledge gaps, and gain a clearer understanding of where they need to develop, making assessment more engaging and personalized.
CYPHER provides a Universal Translator for real-time communications such as messages and posting, enabling learners to connect with others who share the same learning goals, no matter where they are. Build a sense of community through wikis, forums, chat, the Green Dot activity indicator, and real-time widgets.
CYPHER has platform-wide automation supporting gamification, skills development, competency, mastery, course development, on-boarding, compliance, and more. With 25+ automated actions, we give trainers, L&D pros, course creators, and admins the gift of time. Time to focus on training. Time to be creative. Time to problem-solve. Time to connect with learners.
Steps to easily implement skills development
1Add training goals to up-skill
Whether you create on-boarding programs or specific training, add learning goals such as jobs and skills, and allow learners to improve their current skills or build new ones. Create personalized programs based on their goals and get measurable skills development progress.
2Set skills
Take a skills-based approach and automate the association of skills with learning content and resources such as courses and groups to help your learners achieve mastery.
3Get proactive recommendations
The CYPHER platform provides personalized and proactive recommendations that can be a variety of resources such as courses, learning paths, or groups. Recommendations make it easier for learners to up-skill and reach their learning goals. Proactive recommendations are at the heart of personalized learning - tailored to each person’s learning journey.
4Automate tasks
Get more time to train! After setting-up rules that are triggered when learners reach their goals, the platform automatically awards badges, certificates, sends custom messages, enrolls learners in other courses, and more.
5Track goals progress
Create personalized learning paths. Learners get an overview of all the goals they are working on by checking their dashboard or their profile page. There is also an overview page for each goal they are working towards. From there, they can easily put a particular goal on pause or remove it.
6Make a human connection
Build community and make connections in real-time. Learners use the Q&A forum to ask questions and get support to easily reach their active goals. Collaboration takes place at an organization, business, or network level, making it easy to connect and be part of a learning community. CYPHER offers a Universal Translator for real-time communications and a Green Dot activity indicator to show course and participant popularity.
7See skill mastery in one view
Track learner progress by competency and get a detailed view of how learners are understanding the concepts. Easily see mastery levels for all learners with the mastery grid. Only CYPHER allows you to see everything in one place, giving you a comprehensive look at performance and skill mastery for better insight. All other platforms require you to check each learner individually.
