Setting Up the LinkedIn Learning Integration

Overview

Setting up the LinkedIn Learning integration requires configuration in both LinkedIn Learning and Learn Amp. You'll create an API application in LinkedIn Learning, then enter the credentials into Learn Amp to establish the connection.

The process takes approximately 15–20 minutes and requires admin access to both platforms.

Pre-requisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

• Admin access to your LinkedIn Learning account

• Admin access to your Learn Amp platform

• Your Learn Amp platform URL (e.g., yourcompany.learnamp.com)
