The 10-Point LMS Integration Readiness Checklist for Enterprise L&D

Before you integrate a new LMS, ensure your organization is ready.

LMS integrations often fail—not because of the technology, but because key planning steps are overlooked early on. This practical checklist helps enterprise L&D, IT, and compliance teams validate readiness before implementation begins, reducing risk, delays, and costly rework.

This downloadable checklist guides you through the critical questions to answer before kickoff, ensuring your LMS integrates seamlessly with your existing systems, security requirements, and reporting workflows.

What You’ll Learn

In this checklist, you’ll get a clear framework to:

  • Inventory your full technology stack, including HRIS, SSO, CRM, ERP, and content systems

  • Define and prioritize LMS integration use cases by business impact

  • Identify available APIs, data endpoints, and authentication methods

  • Map data fields and schemas to prevent sync issues

  • Establish security, compliance, and audit requirements (FedRAMP, GDPR, HIPAA)

  • Plan SSO, user provisioning, content integrations, and reporting flows

  • Prepare testing, rollback, and support plans before go-live

Each item is designed to serve as a go/no-go gate—helping you keep your LMS integration timeline on track and avoid surprises mid-project.

Why It Matters

A poorly planned LMS integration can slow adoption, create security gaps, and derail reporting. This checklist helps ensure your LMS becomes a connected, reliable part of your learning ecosystem—not another silo.
