Adding LinkedIn Learning content in your BrS courses

A tutorial on how to add LinkedIn Learning videos and courses in Brightspace courses.

1. Go to the Content section in your Brightspace course.

2. Next you will need to either create a new module (e.g. content page) or use an existing one. (In this example I will be using an existing one called LinkedIn.)

It is important to know that in a course from LinkedIn Learning a student will only receive a grade once they have watched all the material in it.

If the content you selected from LinkedIn learning happens to be a video, the student only needs to watched the selected video to receive a grade.

Students will be able to see their grade when they visit their My Grades page.
