LinkedIn Learning is a TAFE NSW subscription database for the use of current students and staff only. Content cannot be copied or recorded.

Links to courses and videos are available to TAFE NSW students and staff only. People outside our organisation will not be able to access the content.

You can download LinkedIn Learning videos to view offline. See the
Mobile App page.

You can create authenticated Single Sign On (SSO) links (Also called deeplinks) to LinkedIn Learning content which will take you directly to the course or video after logging in with your TAFE NSW username and password. These links can be shared within TAFE NSW.

Option 1 - Wildcard prefix

When logged in to LinkedIn Learning:

• copy the link from the URL field
• add the wildcard authentication prefix

Link example from the URL field: https://www.linkedin.com/learning/learning-excel-2019/build-your-foundation-in-excel?autoplay=true&u=57684225

Deeplink: https://www.linkedin.com/checkpoint/enterprise/login/57684225?pathWildcard=57684225&application=learning&redirect=https://www.linkedin.com/learning/learning-excel-2019/build-your-foundation-in-excel?autoplay=true&u=57684225

Option 2 - Authentication suffix

When logged in to LinkedIn Learning:

• copy the link from the URL field
• add the authentication suffix &auth=true 

Link example from the URL field: https://www.linkedin.com/learning/learning-excel-2019/build-your-foundation-in-excel?autoplay=true&u=57684225

Deeplink: https://www.linkedin.com/learning/learning-excel-2019/build-your-foundation-in-excel?autoplay=true&u=57684225&auth=true

Or change the autoplay option from "true" to "false" which prevents the video from starting automatically.

Always test your links before sharing them. If you need help creating authenticated SSO links, contact library staff.
