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 Given the limited number of licenses, this means that yearly licenses have to be withdrawn from the accounts of those who left.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 help-desk to remove linked licenses.

There are several ways to provision users in LinkedIn Learning. The documentation of LinkedIn Learning (Single Sign-on (SSO) Administrator Guide for LinkedIn Products) discusses the granting of licenses (Automatically assignlicenses) and the support for SSO JIT (Just in Time Provisioning). The latter is necessary to grant users (e.g. students) access or not. To configure this, LinkedIn Learning needs to be configured accordingly.
