    11. Log into LinkedIn Learning: Access LinkedIn through your account or the University portal. Navigate to "My Learning": Click on the "My Learning" tab located in the top menu to see your ongoing courses and Learning Paths. Select Your Learning Path: Choose the Learning Path you want to modify from the list of enrolled courses and paths. Add or Remove Courses: To add courses, search for the course you want and click "Save" or "Add to My Learning" to include it in your Learning Path. To remove courses, go to the Learning Path and click the three dots next to the course title, then select "Remove from My Learning" or simply remove it from the path. Reorder Courses: You can adjust the order of courses by dragging and dropping them in the sequence you prefer within the Learning Path. Track Your Progress: Review your amended Learning Path and ensure it aligns with your evolving goals. Progress will continue to be tracked, and you can revisit or modify it as needed.

      Any instructions we should number. Rather than a transcript for demo videos can we have the video and the written instructions like this in a accordion

    12. By tailoring your Learning Path, you can ensure that it stays relevant to your career goals and areas of interest.

      Make this sentence part of the previous paragraph

    15. Arranging courses in a logical order to form a Playlist.

      The heading here says playlist but the video is about collections?

      I think we can keep the title much shorter too just 'Creating a collection/playlist'

    16. Set learning goals and follow skills from How to Use LinkedIn Learning by Oliver Schinkten

      I'm a little confused by this video cant watch it at the moment - is this playlists and collections or are career goals something else? If something else I think it need bullet above and any videos should be in same order as the bullets

    18. Collections: You can create collections. They are more flexible groupings of courses or resources that you can explore at your own pace, allowing you to dive into specific topics or areas of interest.

      Reword to

    19. Playlists: These are created by you. Like Learning Paths, they are sets of courses or videos organised to progressively build your skills but unlike Learning Paths you can personalise them. This can be especially useful when you find learning specific topics complex.

      Delete

    23. Learning Paths: These are created by your tutors. They are a structured series of courses organised to progressively build your skills, which can be especially useful when learning complex topics like coding or data analysis. Collections: These are a more flexible grouping of courses or resources that you can explore at your own pace, allowing you to dive into specific topics or areas of interest.

    31. I think we might have 3 sections but more steps - to me Getting started is a section but the step is creating your student profile?

    32. Step One - Getting Started

      For the headings can we use semei colon instead of dash? i.e., Step one: Getting started I think screen readers read out dash but not semi colon

Become familiar with LinkedIn Learning and the true potential it offers Access LinkedIn Learning for the first time Create and use your LinkedIn Learning Path Review and amended your LinkedIn Learning Path as needed Exploit other LinkedIn features such as building networks and listing career goals and interests Access further resources to enhance your professional skills and competitiveness.

      • Help you access LinkedIn Learning and become familiar with its features. • Create, use and review LinkedIn Learning Paths. • Make use of features for building networks and listing career goals and interests.
