LinkedIn Learning: Adding Resources in VU Collaborate

This guide concerns integrating LinkedIn Learning videos or courses directly into a VU Collaborate unit space using a direct integration (LTI 1.3). This allows students to view LinkedIn Learning content within VU Collaborate without needing to transition to the LinkedIn Learning platform itself. The integration also allows for teaching staff to search the LinkedIn Learning database for relevant content before adding it to the VU Collaborate unit space.

For general discovery LinkedIn Learning content can be accessed through the staff:

• VU Portal
• A-Z Databases

Navigate through this guide using the links below:

• Access the relevant module
• Add the LinkedIn Learning Activity
• Search and select content
• Student view
