Pros I like how there's a vast catalog of learnings to choose from from different topics and subject areas. I particularly like the feature of the learning paths you can follow. That makes it easier to cover relevant courses without having to search/ find them individually. It's also quite nice that I can download my certificates upon completing courses or choose to directly upload them to my LinkedIn page for other's to see. Cons I think it's a pretty decent learning platform for upskilling but I haven't yet found courses that go as in depth as I'd like. It offers a more passive learning experience which isn't ideal for me to gain expert-level knowledge in the new areas I'm pursuing. I wish the learnings could be much more interactive because that way I would be able to fully engage in what I'm learning. Review Source Ann S. Proposal Content Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "LinkedIn Learning is a useful training tool" October 30, 2026 5.0 I've learned a lot with the courses offered in LinkedIn Learning. It would make LinkedIn more of a destination site if you did not have to pay for it. Pros LinkedIn Learning offers a great diversity of courses and I can learn at my own pace. The instructors are usually very engaging as well. Cons Sometimes it's easy to lose sight of the availability of curricula. Also, I wish the platform was free past a trial period. Review Source R Reviewer Remote Assistant Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Still The Best Online Educational Platform that's Offered at No Cost" October 13, 2026 5.0 I have used LinkedIn Learning independently to learn new skills, and as part of the coursework within a college class. I've always been impressed with the shear scope of educational topics available offered on the platform. The number of classes that are available are especially surprising when you consider the price of the service, which is provided at no cost. Pros LinkedIn Learning is a fantastic online learning platform for several reasons. Most of all though, the fact that the courses are free, and not hidden behind a paywall is definitely the best feature of the platform. Cons There are very few problems with LinkedIn Learning, so it's hard to point out any problems with the service. The only drawback I can think of has not changed since my last review: The lack of interactive learning features is somewhat disappointing. Many educational platforms have assignments, or other additional material that supplement the videos. This would significantly improve the learning process. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Lead Geomechanics Specialist Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Learning when I have the time for it" September 27, 2026 4.0 I have found LinkedIn Learning useful for developing new skills and refreshing knowledge when needed. The ability to choose individual topics and progress through a course at my own pace works well for me. Pros LinkedIn Learning has a broad selection of courses covering technical skills, software, business topics, and professional development. I like that many courses are divided into relatively short sections, which makes it easier to learn at my own pace rather than committing to long sessions. Cons Course quality and depth can vary depending on the instructor and topic. Some courses provide a good introduction but do not go deep enough when you already have experience with the subject. Review Source Adam M. Senior Technical Writer Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Unbeatable range of courses" August 31, 2026 5.0 My employer offers this as a perk. I use it to go towards my ongoing CPD. Certificates can be downloaded or even shared on a LinkedIn post which lets your connections enjoy access to your course. Pros There is a very broad range of courses available. I have found some great people to follow on LinkedIn and signed up for newsletters etc. New corses are added regularly and older ones can be updated. Cons The cost is high but if you use it a lot if is worthwhile. Some courses are lower quality and self promote the people who created the courses. However you can just stop watching them. Review Source Luke H. Learning and Development Manager Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Not Bad, But Could be Better " August 27, 2026 3.0 Pretty positive. However for the cost, we would have needed better controls in place and a more curated system for the content. Pros The various offerings are incredible and you can offer a lot of paths for your team, so a real positive for the money. Cons There is a little too much, and the quality control isn't always there. They could do a much better job of pulling down content that is no longer relevant. Review Source Verified Reviewer Marketing Specialist Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Great for self improvement" August 16, 2026 5.0 Pros What I liked most about LinkedIn Learning is its extensive knowledge base that is widely open to users. Cons I don't have anything negative to say about to LinkedIn Learning - it has been a great tool to expand skills and add them to your profile on LinkedIn. Review Source Furkan A. Founder Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "A reliable platform for continuous professional development" August 14, 2026 5.0 My overall experience has been very positive. I use LinkedIn Learning as a practical resource for continuous professional development and for keeping my knowledge current across design, product, business, and technology topics. The platform is easy to navigate, recommendations are generally relevant, and the ability to learn in shorter sessions makes it particularly useful alongside day-to-day client work. It has become one of the platforms I can quickly turn to when I want either a structured introduction to a new subject or a refresher on an existing skill. Pros I like how easy LinkedIn Learning makes it to fit professional development into a busy work schedule. The courses are generally well structured, clearly presented, and divided into manageable sections, so I can either complete a full learning path or quickly focus on a specific topic when I need it. I especially find it useful for UX, product thinking, project management, leadership, and software-related skills. The integration with the broader LinkedIn ecosystem also makes the experience feel more connected to professional growth. Cons The main limitation for me is that the depth of the courses can vary. Many courses are excellent for building a solid understanding of a topic, but for highly technical or specialized subjects I sometimes need additional resources or more hands-on training. I would also like to see more advanced project-based content where learners can work through realistic business scenarios from beginning to end. Review Source Joao C. HR Learning and Development Lead Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "An Alternative to YouTube for Learning in Organizations" August 6, 2026 3.0 Overall, the content library is wide, but most learners could simply watch without learning anything from the content. Additionally, when it was available, the integration between LiL and our LMS was clunky when it was available. Pros Lots of content and is easy to deploy. It used to also integrate with our LMS seamlessly, though, not perfectly. Cons The integration between our LMS and LiL was disabled and has been unavailable since then. We were informed about this, but that was the main factor we launched it. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Research Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Great Short Videos but Expensive" July 14, 2026 4.0 I personally like using Linkedin Learning when I am learning a new topic and when I have already purchased LinkedIn Premium. Pros LinkedIn Learning offer important courses in a short and concise way. It is not only easy to understand but also time saving. Cons The pricing of LinkedIn learning is too high. Furthermore, the certifications from linkedin offer little value in the job market. Review Source Mouloukou S. K. Account executive Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Good for a quick intro or refresher but for depth, look elsewhere " July 21, 2025 4.0 Pros Short courses that are to the point and engaging regardless of you prior knowledge on the topic. Also many topics, especially business Related. Cons Some courses are super basic with no or very limited assessment. As a result, the certification are easy to obtain. This does make the certification less valuable compared to those from platforms like Coursera or EdX Review Source R Reviewer Language Instructor Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Language excellence with LinkedIn Learning." May 21, 2026 4.0 As a small language school like ours, it is a good supplemental material. My students like having additional materials, but I wish the site had more interactive activities. The monthly fee per user is reasonable, and we only want to use it when the students are actively using it in conjunction with our regular curriculum. Pros The language courses really dovetail into what I am teaching in class. The videos are available to practice between lessons. Some great teaching methodology courses were also found, helped me to organize my intermediate group in Swedish better. The certificates motivate my adult learners, they share them on their profiles. Cons Course search isn't great when looking for specific language levels. There is some dated content, particularly the 2018 Business language modules. Prefers printable resources to be used in the classroom. Review Source Verified Reviewer IT Systems Analyst Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "How some people have premium LinkedIn account and don't use the learning platform?" May 15, 2026 3.0 Started using LinkedIn learning when LinkedIn offered me a trial for a month and then I watched some content over there regarding software development and C# lessons. Pros The one thing that stands on a right way about LinkedIn learning is too the quantity of courses that they offer and quality. Cons The fact that you have to purchase a premium account on a LinkedIn to access the full content is the only thing that bothers me. Review Source Verified Reviewer Proprietor Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "One of the better places to find professional development opportunities" January 6, 2026 4.0 I've found LinkedIn Learning to be a reliable source for professional development material as well as being a great source of refresher material. Pros The resources provided within the LinkedIn Learning platform are good value for the price you pay for access. The user interface is easy to navigate due to the site's intuitive content layout and page design. Features such as learning grouping for your own collated lesson plans is an added bonus. Cons Some of the lessons are slightly dated (which is easy to do in the digital realm where content changes so frequently). Review Source R Reviewer Senior Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Convenient learning platform for multiple tech & functional topics" January 8, 2026 5.0 Useful learning platform with varying degrees of rigour on a myriad of topics both functional and technical. Pros Several courses with varying degree of rigour. Very useful to get a quick handle on topics or invest further time as one would like. Cons Some basic access should be available even to users without LinkedIn Premium. It would help increase interest and check relevance before fully committing to it. Review Source CG Chantal G. Software Developer Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Detailed Approach for Business Training " November 29, 2024 5.0 LinkedIn Learning is the choice that brings credible training and knowledge management.

If you have the opportunity to have a premium subscription in LinkedIn, then should take advantage of this learning platform. This is a best way to boost your LinkedIn profile and skillsets as well! Pros \- LinkedIn Learning has so many online courses and topic to offer. You can watch all of them if you are subscribed to LinkedIn Premium, and some are accessible also even if you are using the free version of LinkedIn.- Learning module is accessible via website and it also has an independent app in Play Store or App Store.- Courses can be watched on the go, and you can even see your progress- After finishing a course, you can have a certificate which you can show in your profile Cons \- The only problem I dislike about LinkedIn Learning is that, if you finish a course, and suddenly you are not having a premium subscription, that finished course is already inaccessible even if you have finished it before Review Source Carla O. Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Fun way to learn and grow professionally." November 27, 2025 4.0 Pros It was fun to use LinkedIn in a different way. There were interesting courses and the certificates at completion are exciting to have and share. Cons There were not a lot of options outside of what I initially chose to learn about. When I tried to pick another one, any other one, it kept saying there was nothing available. Review Source Eleanor S. Senior Marketing Campaigns Lead Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Good learning tool" April 28, 2025 4.0 Pros I used LinkedIn learning when my company paid for a subscription. i found a lot of very useful courses on there Cons It was hard sometimes to keep track of what I had already taken vs. favorited Review Source R Reviewer Sr. Talent Acquisition Partner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "In regards to Linkedin Learning" March 5, 2025 5.0 Good plus alpha to linkedin career which I can use to further improve self Pros Multiple classes regarding different topics available.

December 13, 2024 4.0 Overall, I love my experience with LinkedIn Learning as it has given me opportunities to develop my skills on an endless amount of topics. Pros I really enjoy how LinkedIn Learning gives you an opportunity to develop your professional skills in a variety of areas at your own pace/asynchronously as well as allows you to share these accomplishments. More specifically about the interface, I enjoy how the courses are broken into sections to make them digestible, that you can edit the playback speed, that there are check-in quizzes to test your learning, and that you can take notes! Cons Sometimes I wish there were more engaging practice tests besides the multiple-choice quizzes. For example, if it were an Excel LinkedIn Learning course, it would be cool to be able to practice in a real or simulated Excel document rather than just answering theoretical questions. Review Source R Reviewer Learning and Development Operations Specialist Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Upskill on LinkedIn Learning" January 9, 2025 5.0 Positive experience. Our employees enjoyed the autonomy to learn topics of their choosing. Pros Plenty of topics. Course breakdowns before starting. Social element to completion. Recognition on a global platform.
