The Learning Plan feature helps you create AI-personalized career development plans based on the career goals they enter and the skills they want to build. Plans use signals such as a learner’s industry, level of experience, and inferred proficiency to recommend relevant content.
Important to know
At this time the Learning Plan feature is available only in the English-language library.
Please review the below frequently-asked questions for more information on Learning Plans.
For Learning customers and admins
Employees of any LinkedIn Learning Career Hub customer can use the Learning Plans feature.
Yes. Please note that Learning Plans are tied to Career Goals. If Career Goals are toggled off in the admin portal (Settings > Customize > Learner features), Learning Plans will also be disabled.
You can’t directly edit a learner’s Learning Plan content. Today, Learning Plans do not automatically use or prioritize your customized role data (titles, skills, Role Guides). The AI may consider organizational context, but it does not prioritize it for customization yet.
Later this year, Learning Plans will prioritize your custom role data and include all customer-uploaded skills for a more fully customized experience.
For more information on how to help your customers customize their content across the entire Career Development ecosystem, check out the resources here.
- Today: Custom Roles and skills are not prioritized and do not flow automatically into Learning Plans. AI may take organizational signals into account, but outcomes are not guaranteed to reflect your custom data.
- Later in 2025: Learning Plans will prioritize your custom role data and include 100% of customer-uploaded skills.
No. At this time, admins cannot customize individual employee’s learning plans. However admins can customize the role titles, skills, and content that a learner would see for any given career goal. See above for customization details.
No. Reporting is not available for Learning Plans at this time.
For learners
If you belong to an organization with a LinkedIn Learning Career Hub license, when you set a Career Goal, you can find Learning Plan in the My Career Journey tab on the left navigation pane. You’ll also be automatically prompted to create a Learning Plan while onboarding as a new learner.
LinkedIn Learning generates content suggestions based on the Career Goal a learner sets as well as the skills a learner chooses to follow. Powered by AI, learning plans can ingest signals, including the following learner-related data points:
- Industry
- Level of experience
- Inferred proficiency
Learners also can customize content by adding more courses related to their followed skills or by removing content that’s not relevant to their goals or desired skills.
You also can customize content and skills for your organization. Custom skills are marked with your company’s logo when you select skills via customized content from your organization. This content is featured in your Learning Plan's Resources from your Organization.
Learners can set up a Learning Plan for any career goal and associated skills for corresponding role titles in LinkedIn Learning.
Learners can personalize their learning plan in three ways: :
-
Change their Career Goal to edit content based on different role titles.
-
Edit Skills to develop to customize content based on different skills for an existing Career Goal.
-
Add or remove courses for any given skill by clicking the Add courses button within any skill track, or click the More
icon to the right of a course to remove it.
For learners who have access to AI-powered Learning Plans, learners can simply enter their goals into the message box promoted at onboarding or from within the My Career Journey page.
