LinkedIn Learning Hub Content Partners Power the New Era of Skill Building

LinkedIn Learning Hub is at the center of an organization’s skill-building strategy. The intelligent skill-building platform draws on data and insights from the world's most comprehensive skills taxonomy to drive employee and business growth. 

When we first launched Learning Hub last year, we spoke about the value of aggregating all of an organization’s learning content in one place: L&D leaders can access skills insights, measure engagement across their learning sources, and customize the learner experience with curated learning paths.

Given the massive changes in the global economy, the need to upskill and reskill feels especially urgent to leaders. The skill sets for jobs have changed by around 25% since 2015. By 2027, this number is expected to double.

A skill-building platform with a rich ecosystem of content partners can help employees rise to future challenges, and help companies navigate crises, remain resilient, and develop future managers and leaders.

An intelligent LXP drives deeper learner engagement through personalization. According to the 2022 Workplace Learning Report, a top motivation to learn is “if the learning is personalized specifically for my interests and career goals.” 

Being able to discover content more easily in one place to build new skills and track skill outcomes is becoming a common theme with LinkedIn Learning Hub customers: 

“Having access to search for LinkedIn Learning content and partner content in Learning Hub is great,” says Lindi Reilly, digital learning and development manager at Gamma, a telecommunications company with its head office in the United Kingdom. “It saves time jumping between systems and provides different options for various learning levels and styles. It was so easy to do; a couple of clicks and it was done.”

How do content integrations create more value for L&D leaders?

We understand that your L&D environment is sophisticated, and you may be using multiple content sources in addition to LinkedIn Learning. For example, R&D teams may use one content provider to build technical skills, and other L&D leaders may make other content available to build new skills for their employees. The ability to surface content from all content providers in Learning Hub makes it easier for L&D leaders to track skills and drive engagement for learners in one central hub, which is critical to meeting an organization’s skill-building objectives.

How is our content partner ecosystem unique?

When we decided to invest in our partner ecosystem, we considered several factors:

• Seamless integration: Administrators with an existing subscription to our content partners can easily enable the integration in a few steps without IT resources. For quick setup instructions, select your desired content partner in the Customer Success Center.
• Personalized recommendations across all content sources: All partner content in LinkedIn Learning Hub is skill-tagged with our world-class skills taxonomy to ensure that learners discover the right content at the right time in their learning journey. We do this to ensure that learners and organizations can leverage the full power of our content ecosystem to develop skills and meet their goals.
• Career-driven outcomes: LinkedIn Learning Hub supports ongoing skill building for career growth with many companies focusing on employee development opportunities to prevent attrition. Personalization and partner content empowers employees to discover new growth paths and build the right skills to accelerate their professional goals.
