LinkedIn Learning Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I like most about LinkedIn is its ability to easily identify a large pool of potential acquisition opportunities and talented professionals across the country. The platform makes it simple to connect with recruiters or find candidates who can contribute effectively to our business, making lead generation and talent acquisition more efficient and impactful.

Like

What I like most about the product is the customization features. There is the ability to create learning paths for the organization and create custom learning paths as a user based on career interests. I like the integration with the companies HR systems as well. Employees can easily see job postings they might be interested in and plan to learn the skills necessary for the role. Finally, I love the reporting features. These help us identify where employees are leaning in the most and support discovery and scoping for employee development initiatives built in house.

Like

The two overwhelmingly best features are the ease of navigation, far surpassing any other digital learning tools that we have previously used, and making it far quicker to return to saved content. And secondly, the quality and breadth of content is making it easy, even compelling, to learn beyond the bare minimum. This takes the tool from needs-must to a joy to use, with the team finding both directly applicable content and also complimentary learning that augments their abilities with an understanding of the teams they partner with.

Dislike

There are few downsides to LinkedIn, but one challenge is that the AI-Powered search sometimes doesn't work accurate candidate results. which can slow down acquisition efforts. Additionally, the security measures are very strict, and accounts can get blocked unexpectedly. While this helps protect data, it can be frustrating since there is no direct support channel other than email, which may delay issue resolution.

Dislike

One of the main issues with the platform is the sheer volume of resources. There are a lot of courses and many of them are outdated. For example, courses created pre-covid that do not account for remote/hybrid working environments or trainings that reference social distancing and masking when these practices are not widely deployed. Another challenge is difficulty finding relevant information. Key word searches bring up many relevant topics and sometimes completely irrelevant topics that increase the time spent searching and take away from the time spent learning. Finally, the product is costly with low utilization.

Dislike

Honestly, it is hard to find any shortcomings with LinkedIn Learning, but perhaps one item missing is better team collaboration - where a manager or team could share specific courses with each other, or even custom teams.

What Your Peers Are Saying About LinkedIn Learning

Analyst, HR
How do organizations utilize LinkedIn Learning to upskill employees for higher-level roles and outline additional training pathways employed to close skill gaps?
HR Manager
LinkedIn Learning is not prompted as a company learning path. Most individuals utilize LinkedIn Learning on their own based on their goals. The company does offer a training platform for employees to build out their career path learning. An organization can build out a specific training path by role for their employees or an employee can build their own training plan. Some training is required and tracked by HR/Organization, but most is determined by the individual. It is a great benefit for the company to offer training choices to add to external options.

What are your thoughts on Cornerstones on demand learning offering?  We are reviewing against our current provider LinkedIn Learning and would love to hear experiences. I’m particularly keen to know of your experiences of the range of content, quality of content, applicability of learning, how engaging learners have found the modality and whether you have been able to integrate the learning content into program and learning offerings. I’d also love to know whether you’ve been to leverage the compliance training and whether it meets regulation requirements so that you can substitute other compliance training on topics like anti-harassment as an example. We find challenges with the reporting with LinkedIn Learning and believe that Cornerstone will be more useful in this regard given our LMS is SABA. Is this a fair assumption? For those that have used or researched LinkedIn Learning - how do you find the two as a comparison?

    LinkedIn learning is the best digital learning tool we have used

    5.0
    Jan 7, 2026
    We have used several different digital learning platforms over the years and, frankly, all of them felt clunky - hard to navigate, frustrating to use, and content was uninspiring. LinkedIn Learning is a marked difference in every way, being super easy to navigate, bookmark, share, and the quality and breadth of content is first class.

    LinkedIn Learning Offers Extensive Catalog but May Lack Advanced Technical Depth

    Dec 2, 2025
    LinkedIn Learning offered me a vast catalog of business, technology, and leadership courses that helped me gain a lot of intel and expertise on sales leadership, sales processes, AI, and generative AI—which was critical for me from both a professional and personal skill development perspective.

    Learning Progress Easy To Track But Advanced Technical Courses Are Scarce

    3.0
    Nov 10, 2025
    In my experience its average, technically speaking doesn't have as many flaws as other products have (for eg, multiple pop up for nested training content or videos requiring special embedded codecs). Index and track of learning its easy to achieve in the LinkedIn Learning platform. I believe the weak point is in the content of the available training which at least in my case looks pretty basic or much related to best practices, standards and how to improve skills, but not much in specific topics such as development with particular languages, K8's or managing a specific security solution.
