LinkedIn Learning Expert Review, Pricing, Alternatives - 2022
It's an eclectic eLearning ecosystem and LMS from the quintessential social network for work, and one of the top tools for recruiters.
What's Inside
LinkedIn Learning has a strong backbone of content from Lynda, one of the first online businesses from back in the 1990s that had several decades to assemble content around all types of business knowledge from soft to hard skills. With LinkedIn Learning, employees can get training on three main areas, business, creative, and technology. Together, these categories can display topics on anything from SCRUM and Excel to photography and non-verbal language for leaders.
- Over 16,000 courses
- An average of 50 new courses are added per week
- Microlearning: You can decide to watch super short videos with key info, leveraging this learning trend, before delving deeper into fully-fledged courses.
- Certifications: Some courses may offer a certification. These, naturally, can be added straight to your LinkedIn profile.
With LinkedIn Learning, you can buy individual courses or subscribe to the whole catalogue as you would do for a streaming service. The latter option is priced for a single account, and starts at $29,99 per month if you pay monthly, or $19,99 if you pay for the whole year. If you'd like to purchase the service for a team, they offer custom pricing.
Setting LinkedIn Learning for a company would depend on the scope of the project, which is why the best bet is to get in touch with their team. For individuals, it's as easy as signing up and choosing a course to start with.
