One sign-in, with users always up to date

  • People sign in with their existing work account through SSO, using SAML or OIDC
  • On Microsoft 365, admins can turn on one-click Microsoft sign-in for the whole organization
  • SCIM directory sync from Microsoft Entra ID or Google Workspace adds, updates, and deactivates users
  • No HR connection yet? Sync up to 5,000 people at once with a CSV, and preview every change first

People sign in with SSO over SAML or OIDC, or with one-click Microsoft sign-in.

Training in Slack and Microsoft Teams

  • The 5Mins bot sends each person a direct message when a course is assigned
  • Due-date reminders arrive before deadlines, in the tools people check all day
  • Targeted reminders go only to people who haven't started, are overdue, or failed
  • Two clicks to set up: a Slack or Teams admin approves the 5Mins app for everyone

The 5Mins bot messages each person in Slack when a course is assigned and before it's due.

Your questions answered

Questions about LMS integrations and SSO

Which HR systems does 5Mins integrate with?

5Mins connects to 100+ HRIS platforms, including Workday, HiBob, BambooHR, UKG Pro, UKG Ready, PeopleHR, Fourth, and ADP. New joiners, leavers, and team changes sync automatically, so your people data in 5Mins always matches your HR system.

What is the difference between HRIS sync and directory sync?

Directory sync (SCIM) connects to Microsoft Entra ID or Google Workspace and keeps names, work emails, and active status up to date. HRIS sync goes further and brings in teams, managers, start dates, locations, and custom fields, so joiners are enrolled into the right training and leavers are deactivated automatically.

Does the 5Mins LMS support single sign-on (SSO)?

Yes. 5Mins supports SSO with SAML and OIDC, so people sign in with the work account they already use. Organizations on Microsoft 365 can also turn on one-click Microsoft sign-in for everyone.

How do the Slack and Microsoft Teams integrations work?

Once a Slack or Microsoft Teams admin approves the 5Mins app, the 5Mins bot sends each person a direct message when a course is assigned and reminds them before it is due. Admins can also send targeted reminders to people who have not started or are overdue.

What happens to learning records when someone leaves?

When a leaver is deactivated through your HR system, directory sync, or a CSV sync, they lose access to 5Mins but their learning history is kept. Learning Records keep every enrollment with its full history, so you stay audit-ready.

Which plans include SSO and integrations?

SSO and the Slack and Microsoft Teams integrations are included from the Essentials plan. See pricing, or book a demo to talk through connecting your HR system.
