Find the right content - LinkedIn Learning Tutorial

- [Instructor] Once you get your skills added and your goals set, get ready to start finding content. In this video, let's take a look at how you can find the content you're looking for on LinkedIn Learning. Now at the top of the homepage, you'll notice the banner that appears. This banner highlights new and noteworthy content that's personalized just for you. The courses are selected for you based on your current job and their influence by LinkedIn data about trending skills for your industry and role. Your homepage will look different than mine because it will be personalized for you based on the skills that you entered in, your activity on LinkedIn learning. As well as information from your LinkedIn profile if you have that connected. Now notice as I scroll down the page here, we have these different carousels or rolls of suggested courses. LinkedIn will pin new and trending carousels at the top of the homepage, followed by different groupings that depend on your information and activity. So here you can see trending for journalists, stay sharp on instructional design, and more. Now, I'll go back up here to the top. Now at the top of the page is the global navigation bar and here we have a couple options. The first is to click on the browse tab and from there, it brings us to the different libraries. We have the business library, creative library, and technology library. And within them, we have subjects, software, and learning paths. And you can see the number of different things that we have to choose from here. Let's say for instance that I was looking for a course on Excel. So I'm going to go ahead and click in the business library, under software, on Excel. Now, when I do that it brings me to an Excel page and here I see that there are 6,454 results, that's too many. So I need to narrow this down. Well we can do that using the search filters on the left. Over here I can narrow it down by only courses and if I do that, we're down to 190 but that's still really high. Here I could go by level, say I click on beginner or time to complete, software, whether or not it's continuing education credits and more. Now here I have it narrowed down to courses that are beginner, I'm down to 41 and from here I can search for the course that I'm looking for or for one that I think that would fit what I need. Now another way that we can search for specific content is to use the search bar. Let's say I'm looking for content related to design. I'm going to go up here at the top and I'll click design in the search bar and then enter. Now I have these filters turned on, so I'll turn them off and you'll notice when I do this, we get 21,672 results. So that's way too many, I would need to filter this down again. Let's say here that I actually know that I'm looking for something specific and that is the indesign program from Adobe. So in here, although I want design, I can narrow that down by putting indesign. When I do that, I can narrow it down now to courses, let's say ones that are intermediate, and I'm now down to 90, I can choose here. Maybe it's advanced and there are nine advanced courses. So utilize these filters as well as the browse tab that shows the library and the search bar, which allows you to search for specific content on LinkedIn Learning.
