HiBob Learning or Workademy? An honest comparison
HiBob's Learning module covers a lot: an AI course generator, SCORM, assignments by role and reminders. Workademy fits when you want your courses built with you from your own documents, and proof per person and per question. You can also use both: Workademy syncs employees and departments from HiBob every day.
Free: one course from your own PDF, up to 30 pages, in 2 business days
Using both: HiBob for HR, Workademy for training
HiBob stays your HR system of record. Workademy runs the training. The connection runs one way, from HiBob to Workademy, once a day.
New hire added in HiBob
- The next daily sync creates their Workademy account
- They join the group for their department
- Courses assigned to that department start automatically
Department changes in HiBob
- The next sync moves them to the new department group
- Courses assigned to the new group are added
- Their earlier completions stay on record
Employee leaves
- Their status changes in HiBob
- They lose access to Workademy after the next sync
- Completions and certificates stay in Workademy
The result: nobody keeps a second employee list. Completion proof stays in Workademy, ready to export by course, person and date.

HiBob Learning alone is enough when
- You already pay for HiBob Learning
- You want everything inside one HiBob app
- Library courses and HiBob's AI generator cover your training
HiBob + Workademy makes sense when
- You use HiBob without the Learning module
- You want someone to build the courses with you from your own documents
- You want to see which questions people get wrong
- Part of your group, or your partners, sit outside HiBob
