LinkedIn Learning Catalogue Browsing through Docebo - without import!

We have the LinkedIn Learning integration with around 400 courses imported into our platform and weaved throughout our learning plans etc. 

We’d like to explore the option of learners browsing the LI library of courses THROUGH docebo without having to import a course into the platform, similar to how we browse as administrators. 

Essentially, we want the experience of THIS page without the import option for them and serve as a window. 



Additionally, we’ve created a LinkedIn Learning Catalogue which surfaces all 10,000+ courses, but when they are imported they don’t align with our metadata and we’re aware that LI courses aren’t updated automatically etc and risk duplication if imported courses. 



This is becoming a bit of a headache, and wondered if anyone has experienced the same OR if mass import is the way to go OR just let learners run free and put processes in place to maintain data integrity. 

Thanks all!

(We also toyed with applying code to hide the import button, but was told this would be for ALL which would mean we, as admins, would not be able to import either!)

We have imported all English courses from LI and regret it...clean up is huge...sadly there is no way for your users to review the content marketplace as you do as a super…

If you want your users to browse the LI courses without importing, your best bet is to create an External page linked to the LI course catalogues...users can choose to login or not...you would still need some kind of process if a user see a course they want but you haven't imported in the LMS…

@lrnlab Did you execute a massive import of english courses from Linkedin Learning? It doesn’t look like I’m able to filter by language in the massive import function. Appreciate your feedback!

That could be linked to what your contract with LinkedIN includes. The filter is located on the left - do you not see this?

Since the filters are very limited, know that using the massive import will bring in ALL “English” courses so choose wisely...we use the option to create courses when importing and have regretted it since we have about 8,000 courses we need clean out manually. Not a fun task.

@lrnlab is there a way to “Pre-Filter” that LinkedIn Learning Catalog page so the user by default sees courses in their preferred language?

  • on my platform, currently when a user goes to the LIL Catalog page they see 25,000 courses in a variety of languages… wow talk about overload
  • User would have to click “filters” to open that sidebar, then click checkbox by their language to refine to only their preferred language
  • my platform supports 5 languages (English, Spanish, Hebrew, Chinese, Portuguese)… so I’d want English users to see just the 5,000 English courses, not all 25,000 courses.

 

Of course, the better option, and having seen how some companies design their platforms this week, would be to provide a curated page with various LIL course recommendations… 

  • a curated set of courses for various roles: Sales, Marketing, IT, CS, etc.
  • and then below that a button to “See all LinkedIn Learning Content” would be below the various recommendations…. which then takes to that LIL catalog page with EVERYTHING
