You may also be asked to reconfirm your LinkedIn profile connection details (email address and password). Finally, you may be asked to select your skills and interests to help customize the LinkedIn Learning experience. For returning learners, once you’ve completed this initial single sign on, your existing LinkedIn Learning history and certificates of completion will still be available in your account.
