- Achieve measurable results through unified data and AI-enhanced workflows
With Cielo as your platform operator, your Workday ecosystem becomes a governed unified enterprise platform — continuously improving adoption, automation, data quality, and measurable outcomes.

We're frequently asked…
Becoming Workday certified is a rigorous process designed to ensure only the highest level of expertise. The primary prerequisite is being employed by Workday or a certified Workday partner company, like Cielo. Individuals cannot seek certification independently; it’s a commitment made at the organizational level to maintain platform integrity.
At Cielo, our experts undergo intensive, Workday-led training and must pass demanding examinations to earn their credentials. This ensures that when you work with us, you are partnering with professionals who have a deep, verified understanding of Workday’s architecture and the latest functional updates. For our clients, this means lower risk and a more sophisticated level of system optimization.
A Workday consultant acts as the strategic architect of your HR technology ecosystem. Beyond just "fixing" technical issues, we ensure your system is working as hard as your people do. At Cielo, our consultants focus on:
- Strategic alignment: Mapping your business goals to Workday’s capabilities to ensure the technology supports your long-term vision.
- Process optimization: Streamlining complex workflows — from payroll to talent acquisition — to remove friction for your teams.
- Change management: Helping your workforce adopt new features and shifts in technology with confidence.
- Data integrity: Ensuring your reporting and analytics are accurate, actionable, and secure.
Workday is a powerful engine, but navigating its full potential requires a partner who understands the ecosystem. A partner provides the specialized expertise that allows your internal teams to stay focused on their core business rather than getting bogged down in technical maintenance.
By leveraging a partner, you gain:
- Accelerated ROI: Get to value faster by following proven best practices instead of learning through trial and error.
- Continuous innovation: Stay ahead of biannual updates with a partner who knows how to implement new features without disrupting your operations.
- Scalable support: Access a global pool of certified talent that can scale up or down based on your project needs, ensuring you always have the right skills at the right time.
Cielo is not your typical technology partner. We’re talent experts who are also Workday experts. While others focus solely on the "how" of the software, we focus on the "who" and the "why."
Choosing Cielo means getting:
- Human-centric design: We build solutions that recruiters and candidates actually love to use, driving high adoption and better hiring outcomes.
- Intelligent Talent Programs: We integrate Workday with our own Digital Accelerators™ and AI tools to create a proactive, data-driven talent engine.
- Unmatched integration: We specialize in creating a seamless flow between your Workday environment and the rest of your tech stack, ensuring data is never siloed.
- Proven partnership: We bring the same boldness and empathy to our technology consulting that we bring to our world-class RPO partnerships.
