Overview

LinkedIn Learning helps users to grow their knowledge and learn in-demand skills with more than 16,000 online courses taught by real-world professionals. Our integration with LinkedIn Learning provides thousands of courses on a wide variety of topics that you can now access seamlessly via MATRIX. 

Enabling LinkedIn Learning integration

Before you start configuring the integration, you need to install the LinkedIn Learning app in the App Center.

After the app is installed, you will be automatically taken to the LinkedIn Learning configuration page.

To get started, click the "Edit" button under "Catalog provider".

Enter your "Client ID" and "Client Secret", then click Save.

Once the details are saved, click on the "Test connection" button.

If the connection was successful, a message is displayed at the top of the page.

After making the connection, click on the "Sync now" button.

After syncing the LinkedIn Learning catalog, click on the "All catalogs" button from the top-right corner.

To enable the LinkedIn Learning catalog, click the appropriate checkbox.

Here you can access the LinkedIn Learning configuration page anytime by clicking the cog under Settings.

Using LinkedIn Learning

After the LinkedIn Learning catalog is enabled, it will appear as a tab in the Course catalog, next to the default local catalog.

The LinkedIn catalog is organized into categories that you can browse just like your local catalog. On the tiles is displayed the number of items in each category. To see the courses in a category, click on its tile.

The course tiles display the title and the description of the course.

If you click on the course tile, you will be taken to its overview page, where you'll see its full description. To enroll in a course, click the Enroll button.

If you have permission and you want to configure the course before anyone enrolls, click the cog in the Info box on the overview page. 

Here you can configure the course just like any other MATRIX course. You can add automation actions, change the tabs, edit the basic settings, and more.

Learner view

When a user enrolls in the course, they will first see its splash page. To access the course, click the "Continue to course" button.

The course loads and you can begin by clicking the "Start learning" button.

The LinkedIn courses you are enrolled in will appear in the Home/Enrolled area of your account, just like any other course.
