Searching, Browsing and Navigating

You can search for keywords e.g. Adobe Illustrator. Once at the search result page, you can limit your search using filters.

  • Language (English is set as default language. LinkedIn Learning content is available in 13 different languages, including: Spanish, Portuguese, simplified Chinese, French, Japanese and German)
  • Type (Courses, videos, audio, events, learning paths and role guides - choice depends on your search)
  • Hands-On Practice (Search for courses which include coding practice activities)
  • Time to complete (<10 min to 3+ hours)
  • Level (Beginner, intermediate or advanced)
  • All filters (Which gives you an extended list of filters including Software and Subjects & Topics).

Alternatively, you can click on Content in the left-hand menu to browse for courses, collections, learning paths or role guides. 

 

There are other useful navigation options which appear on your LinkedIn Learning homepage:

  • Home - brings you back to the LinkedIn Learning homepage.
  • My Library - gives you access to any course which you have In progress or Saved and shows your Learning History (Completed courses including the Certificate of Completion). Also listed there are your Collections, content From Your Organization and Skills suggestions.
  • Me - from your profile icon you can set your default language, connect a personal account, access Help and other Settings and view your learning content.
  • EN - allows you to change the system language.

Courses in Other Languages

To find courses in another language, search using keywords in that language (e.g. tecnológico). You can then filter your results by the desired language. Currently courses are available in 13 languages, including: Spanish, Portuguese, simplified Chinese, French, Japanese and German.

Learning Paths

Learning paths are collections created by LinkedIn Learning to bring together courses covering a range of skills needed to learn a specific topic or to follow a career track. Note: Certificates of completion are only available for courses that you complete, and not for learning paths.

The video below shows you how to explore and use the learning paths.

To browse for learning paths, role guides or specific topic areas, select from the links below:

Exercise Files, Notebook and Transcripts

Exercise Files can be accessed via the Overview beneath the video screen. They are listed with other resources under the heading RELATED TO THIS COURSE. They are provided in zip folders which can be downloaded. Please note that this feature is only available for courses that come with exercise files.

The Notebook which also appears below the video screen, allows you to add notes to a course while viewing it. The notes will be saved at the point of time in the video when you added it. They will stay there until you delete them.

The Transcript for each course is accessible next to the Notebook below the video screen.

Creating and Sharing Collections

You can create your own Collections of LinkedIn Learning courses and videos to watch later or share with other TAFE NSW students or staff.

You can have just one Collection if you wish, or you can create multiple Collections and give them custom names relating to your research, learning or teaching. 

 

How to create a collection

At the search result list

When you find a course or video you want to add to a collection, click on the three dots icon and select Add to collection.

You can either:

  • Add the course or the video to a new collection by clicking Create collection  
    • add a title for the collection,
    • add a description (optional) and
    • select Create.

           or

  • Choose + Add to add a course or video to a collection you have created previously.

Please note: If you want the courses/videos in a certain order, you need to add them to the collection in that order.

You can now copy the link and share it, for example, TAFE NSW links can be shared with your class.

Sharing Course Links

You can share a quick course link with other TAFE NSW students and staff. Click the Share icon above the video and then click on Link. Please note that these quick share links require a current TAFE NSW email + username and password to log in. 

Content creators: If you wish to use course links to LinkedIn Learning content in your Moodle/TDC course or in a LibGuide, use the linking instructions for creating authenticated SSO links. Authenticated SSO links with the authentication prefix will link directly to to the course after logging in with the TAFE NSW username and password. 

Certificates of Completion

When you complete a LinkedIn Learning course, you will automatically get a personalised Certificate of completion.

These certificates can be downloaded from the:

  • Course page - via the Overview beneath the video screen, in the RELATED TO THIS COURSE section.
  • My Library - available from the Me drop down menu or My Library in the left-hand sidebar under Learning History.
    • The Certificate of Completion is available from the three dots icon beside each completed course.

The Learning history contains a complete list of your completed courses including certificates.

Please note that unless you have a personal LinkedIn learning account as well as your TAFE NSW account, you won't be able to access your certificates once you leave TAFE NSW.
