LinkedInLearning for Admins

As a LinkedIn Learning admin, you can recommend, or share links to learning paths or collections that you create or use expert-curated learning paths from LiL in course work or for job development goals.

You can create as many learning paths or collections as you'd like with multiple courses, sections, and descriptions to truly customize your learner's experience. From the Admin Account Center, select Content and then Learning Paths or Collections.

• Learning paths are a series of courses and videos that you would like your learners to take in a sequence.
• Collections are a group of courses or videos that do have a particular order.

Recommending vs Sharing learning paths or collections

When you recommend content you can recommend to a group, this allows you to quickly recommend courses or learning paths to everyone in the group at one time. Sharing is when you just want to get a shareable link to use for your collection or learning path. The shareable link works well if you want to insert a link in a D2L module.
