Curate learning in LinkedIn Learning
Curate customized learning for others
If you are a people manager, you have the ability to curate learning content and easily share with others within LinkedIn Learning. You are able to:
- Pick specific videos from courses, or entire courses, to share
- Group content into sections or a specific order, and add descriptions so others understand what you are sharing
- Get insights on how your content is trending over the last 90 days
- See who has completed or is "in progress" with content you have shared
All videos or courses you curate for others are hosted in the university's LinkedIn Learning library, so content is accessible 24/7--like all LinkedIn Learning content!
Frequently Asked Questions
As a people manager, I’m wondering what the advantages are to being able to curate content for others?
Your team, who could be staff members, students, postdocs or others, benefit in many ways, including these:
- Participating in customized learning programs targeting specific skills or knowledge
- Experiencing training that aligns with an individual's performance, personal, or professional goals
- Participating in a shared learning experience within your group/department/school/unit
- Learning a specific skill associated with an upcoming initiative or project
- Having a learning pathway already defined can reduce time spent searching for the right videos/courses
