Linking to LinkedIn

1. You can choose to connect your personal LinkedIn profile to your Learning account for additional features such as course recommendations for your skills and position and what’s trending on LinkedIn Learning. If you do link your LinkedIn profile, you will also be prompted to log in using your LinkedIn account each time, after you log in via UQ.
2. The first time you access LinkedIn Learning you can select the "Continue without connecting my LinkedIn account" button to activate your LinkedIn Learning account without connecting to a LinkedIn account, if you prefer.

After you download the app from the app store, enter uq.edu.au to login via UQ Authenticate.

Alternatively, use your LinkedIn account details if you have linked your LinkedIn Learning account with LinkedIn.

Note: The LinkedIn Learning app is not available in all locations. If you are unable to access the app, please use the browser version.
