LinkedIn Learning within MyLO

What is LinkedIn Learning?

LinkedIn Learning is an educational platform that helps you discover and develop business, technology-related, and creative skills through expert-led course videos. You have access to personalised, “bite-sized” video-based learning 24/7 so you can develop relevant skills and grow professionally. LinkedIn Learning Content can be accessed via the library and lecturers can now add videos or courses within MyLO units.

To add LinkedIn Learning Content  to your MyLO Unit:

Under the Content tab, click Existing Activities, and select LinkedIn Learning.

Choose LinkedIn Learning

You can search for content or press on a filter to view courses and videos.

LinkedIn Learning content can also be added via Insert stuff directly into a web-page. This option is best used for a single video rather than an entire course, but for the best user experience we recommend adding LinkedIn Learning as a quicklink as shown above.

Edit your web-page and select Insert Stuff.

Select Insert Stuff

Select LinkedIn Learning.

Select LinkedIn Learning.

Search for your content, select it and press Insert.

Select your content.

The content will now be embedded on your web-page.

Note: there is no way to hide the Overview information that appears on the videos embedded within your web-page.
