Linkedin Learning is one of the leading online learning platforms, 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 17,000+ courses taught by industry experts and has a growing community of 700+ million users.
Some of the questions that may come to mind when considering its cost are; How much is LinkedIn Learning? Do they have monthly subscriptions? Does LinkedIn Learning offer free courses? If it’s not for me, can I get a refund?
Let’s dive straight in to help clarify some of these questions in this comprehensive LinkedIn Learning pricing guide.
Table of Content
LinkedIn Learning Costs: An Overview
LinkedIn Learning offers a few options for paying for its courses. You can pay for an individual course with pricing varying from $20 to $50 (including VAT) or alternatively sign up for a monthly subscription at $39.99 a month or an annual plan at $323.88 working out at $26.99 a month.
As well as individual plans, it offers pricing plans for teams or entire organizations which are personalized. Prices for this aren’t disclosed, so you would need to contact them to discuss.
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 17,000+ 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?
1 month free trial LinkedIn Learning
If you interested in giving the LinkedIn Learning 1-month free trial a try, then you can check it out here.
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.

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.
LinkedIn Learning buy this course
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.

Variety of options from individual courses, subscription plans to team plans

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.

Hey. I am Catherine and I have been working as a freelancer for many years now. In 2005, I graduated from a BA honours in Art & Design from BCU and then went onto complete a Master’s Degree in Teaching from UEL. The skills I gained from learning and teaching have led me to create Upskillwise, a place for learners like myself to find the best possible resources and courses to train and upskill themselves, either personally or professionally. If you have a question, please feel free to ask me anything or leave me a comment.
Hey Shoshanna. Once you sign up to LinkedIn Learning you will then have the option to buy an individual course. You can read here how to do it 🙂

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?
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.

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
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 🙂

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.
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 🙂

I hope that answers your question and happy learning 🙂

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?
Hey Juan Carlos, Thanks for your message. Yes when you purchase LinkedIn Learning you will have access to LinkedIn Premium. Enjoy and happy learning 🙂
Hey Dlana. Thanks for your question. If you mean you have purchased a LinkedIn Premium subscription then yes you will have full access to LinkedIn Learning. I hope that helps and enjoy 🙂
