LinkedIn Learning is one of the leading online learning platforms, you can read our detailed review here. It’s an online community which merged Lynda.com with LinkedIn and then migrated into LinkedIn Learning in 2017. This learning community offers a wide range of courses in Business, Technology and Creative subjects. It is currently offering 21,000+ courses taught by industry experts and has a growing community of 700+ million users.
To make sure this LinkedIn Learning pricing article is both helpful and informative, I’ve invested considerable time researching LinkedIn Learnings courses, subscription plans, free trial and refund policy. On top of that, my Master’s degree in Teaching and Education, combined with using online learning platforms, has given me a wealth of knowledge to comprise this detailed article on MasterClass pricing.

Is LinkedIn Learning Free?
Sadly, LinkedIn Learning doesn’t offer any free courses, but they do offer a 1-month free trial which will give you full access to all its 21,000+ expert-led courses and other resources.
All you will need to do is register and add your card details. You won’t be charged for the subscription if you cancel at least a day prior to the end of that first month.
It’s a pretty good way to get a taste of the LinkedIn Learning platform right?
If you do decide to cancel your monthly free trial before it ends and then you have a change of heart and decide to rejoin on a paid subscription at a later date, you will be able to continue with the courses where you left off.
LinkedIn Learning Subscription Plans
LinkedIn Learning offers different plans for Individuals, For Teams and For Organizations, depending on how many users you are. All of these subscription plans will give you unlimited access to its catalog of 21,000+ courses.
Individual Subscription Plan
If you are choosing the individual subscription plan, you can choose to pay for it annually or monthly. The annual subscription works out a little cheaper each month, you’ll be making a big saving over the whole year. A 1-month free trial is included when you first sign up, and you’re only start being charged once the free trial has ended.
- Annually: The annual fee is $239.88 working out at $19.99/month
- Monthly: You will pay a monthly subscription of $39.99/month
Both the pricing plans give you full access to the same features. I have listed these features below;
- 21,000+ expert led courses
- Personalized course recommendations
- Earn a certificate on course completion
- Practice exercise files and quizzes
- Download to mobile app for offline viewing
- Access LinkedIn’s Premium Career features
If you are wanting to find out more information about LinkedIn Learning subscription plans, then check out my review on LinkedIn Learning.
Buying Individual LinkedIn Learning Courses
If signing up for a subscription isn’t for you, then no worries as LinkedIn Learning has the option to Buy this course (see image below). If you know which specific course you are wanting to study with, then this could be the right option for you.
There are currently around 5,000 learning courses available to purchase individually. They are looking to expand this and the goal is to make the whole of the Learning library available for individual purchases in the future.
After you have purchased your course you will be able to rewatch and retake the course as many times as you would like, but you must keep your LinkedIn profile to do so.
You can also access the individual course via the mobile app, where you can download the content and view and learn anytime and anywhere.
LinkedIn Learning Team & Organization Plans
In addition to the individual courses, LinkedIn Learning offers subscription plans for your team or organization. The team plan is designed for 2-20 users/licenses, this plan comes with a 1-month free trial. The subscription plan for Organizations is for 21+ users/ licenses and is custom priced, you’ll need to contact LinkedIn Learning for this.
- For Teams: $379.99/ annually
- For Organizations: Custom Priced
You can request Get a free demo (see image above) and discuss with a representative how learning online can benefit your organization. Its content will be curated and personalized to meet the needs of every employee in your team. They will be able to access the content anytime and anywhere from their desktop or mobile device.
Accepted Payment Methods & Currencies
You can purchase your Linkedin Learning courses or subscription plan with a debit/credit and prepaid cards or via PayPal. The available cards are American Express, Discover, Mastercard, Visa, JCB, Diners Club (USD currency only), SEPA direct debit (only in countries using the EUR currency), iDEAL (only residents in the Netherlands), Sofort (only residents in Germany using EUR currency).
LinkedIn Learning accepts payments in a wide range of currencies. Actually 21 currencies are supported which makes this elearning platform appealing to users worldwide.

- Select Premium subscription settings from the dropdown.
- Under Manage Premium account on the right rail, click Cancel subscription.

LinkedIn Learning Refunds
LinkedIn Learning does not offer refunds for its monthly or annual subscriptions, so if you aren’t planning on continuing after the free trial, make sure you cancel the subscription. Citizens and residents of the EU are entitled to a full refund during the 14 days after the subscription begins.
As for Individual courses a 30-day refund guarantee, after that, they become non-refundable.
LinkedIn Learning Costs: Last Thoughts
Ok, let’s conclude the LinkedIn Learning pricing guide;
- It has reasonable pricing plans
- Variety of options from individual courses, subscription plans to team plans
This well established platform focuses on improving skills in Business, Technology and Creative topics. It offers individual courses or signing up for a monthly or annual subscription. If you choose the annual subscription, you will be making a significant saving over the full year.
The 1-month free trial is ideal for you to try out the platform, after which you can then decide to cancel before the 1-month ends, and you won’t have to pay anything.
If individual learning isn’t what you are looking for, then you have the personalized online learning for your entire team or company. The price of this plan is customized, and it is best to request a consultation to find out more.

Are those certificate courses on LinkedIn Learning at all credible? And are they valued more or less as compared to those on Cousera? Also, how many corses can you take during the 30 day free trial?

Hey John. LinkedIn Learning certificates aren’t accredited by an external University or Organization, they are recognition that you have successfully completed a course. With the free trial, you’ll get full access to the LinkedIn Learning platform, which is currently 21,000+ courses. Enjoy and happy learning 🙂

Thank you! Very good article but … I have this problem all the time … I think, “$29.99 isn’t too bad” and then find out that it’s double or more once I sign up to these things because I’m paying in Australian dollars. Can you add “USD or AUD to the end of your pricing structure please? It helps! Thank in advance. 🙂

Hello. I forgot that I subscribed for the one-month free trial. I was charged $239.98! Was that the correct price? I don’t remember subscribing for a one-payment annual fee! Even though the free month ended, is there any way I can get a refund?
Catherine Cooke
26 September 2021, 18:24
Hey Martha,
Thanks for your message. Yes $239.98 is the correct amount as the annual plan is that one, which works out at $19.99 a month (please see attached image). As your free trial has ended, sadly you won’t be able to get a refund. I hope you are still able to enjoy LinkedIn Learning even though you weren’t planning on committing to an annual subscription.

I have been using LinkedIn Learning for the past 3 years as I received the premium from my university. I’ve connected my personal ID to my account and I’m graduating this month; would I be able to continue using the services?
Catherine Cooke

Hello Catherine, I am a regular LinkedIn user, cancelled my premium around 3 m ago. Can you enlighten me, is LinkedIn learning part of the LinkedIn premium subscription? If I reinstate LinkedIn Premium @ $29.99 pm will I then have total access to LinkedIn learning without having to pay $24.99 pmonth for a year or 39.99 per month or will I pay 29.99 for premium and 24.99 for Learning?If I choose not to reinstate LIpremium subscription can I open LI learning subscription monthly or yearly just having regular LInkedIn set up or purchase courses independently?
Thank you
Catherine Cooke
8 August 2021, 09:23
Hey Conchita. Yes if you have a LinkedIn premium account then you will have full access to LinkedIn Learning. But as you said if you decide not to reinstate your premium account then you can register for a LinkedIn Learning subscription either monthly or yearly and some courses you can purchase individually. I hope that helps you and happy learning 🙂
Craig
19 June 2021, 12:53
Hello Catherine,
Looks like the price has changed. The annual subscription (after the free 30 days) is now $24.99 x 12 ($299.88 billed annually) but the monthly charge is now $39.99/mo if you don’t want to pay for the entire year. So basically you must pay around $40/mo unless you want to spend $300 and get billed every year regardless of how much you are using it.
Catherine Cooke
19 June 2021, 16:39
Hey Craig. Thanks so much for your message. I have updated the article with the new pricing plans. I hope you can decide which plan is best for you 🙂

Hey Augustine. Thanks for your question.

Greetings Catherine,
Please if I start subscribing monthly for LinkedIn learning, for any course I will learn under my subscription do I need to pay for the courses again with certificate of completion or is it free learning and free certificate of completion?????
Please clearify me. Am confused

Looking for more information I found yours. Thank you very much.
I just wonder: If I suscribe for LinkedIn Learning, does it means that I will have LinkedIn Premium too? Because I’m looking for that information, but haven’t found it yet.
Someone told me that suscribing to LinkedIn Premium would give me access to Learning (I know I’m asking backwards), but I’m not sure. Would you happen to know that?
Thank you in advance.
