Every institution gets their own instance of LinkedIn Learning. This instance needs to be configured by the institution. This is known as a Single Tenant Service in SURFconext. An institution needs to sign in with an account that comes with Linkedin Learning to configure an instance. SURF does not have that information, so the configurations is up to institutions. When done, the instance can be added to SURFconext by making use of the Service Provider Dashboard. See this page how to make use of the Service Provider Dashboard. Ask for access to the Service Provider dashboard by sending us a mail at support@surfconext.nl. This document describes how to do implement your LinkedIn instance for use with SURFconext. There is a well maintained manual available on the website of LinkedIn Learning how to implement Single Sign-On. Download this from the website of LinkedIn to get the most recent version. This page will highlight the SURFconext specific parameters.

General information

Communicate to users that they have to use the option Sign In / Sign in with your organization account otherwise they will not be able to log in. At the time of writing LinkedIn Learning does not do automatic de-provisioning. LinkedIn expects this functionality to become available in 2020. Until then, this means that a license will remain linked for departed students or employees. Given the limited number of licenses, this means that yearly licenses have to be withdrawn from the accounts of those who left. On request you can use a CSV file to request the LinkedIn helpdesk to remove linked licenses.
