LinkedIn Learning Certificates of Completion are certifications you earn for the courses you have completely watched on LinkedIn Learning. Upon completion of a course, a certificate is automatically generated that can be viewed online and shared.

The majority of the LinkedIn Learning courses are eligible for earning a Certificate of Completion. However, courses that are very short (under 10 minutes) or have frequent updates, such as Deke's Techniques or 10-Minute Tips, are not eligible for earning a Certificate of Completion because new content is always being added.

Note: You may also not receive a Certificate of Completion if you haven't watched every video for that specific course. Please scroll through the Contents tab to see which video(s) was skipped/missed. You can determine which videos you have watched since it will have a Viewed icon  to the right of the video title.

The LinkedIn Learning system is able to track when a member watches and finishes a movie in a title. 
Note: You're not required to complete course assessments or exercise files to earn a Certificate of Completion.

The Certificates category will show all of the certificates obtained on the account. From here, you can share those certificates on social media including LinkedIn. Or print off certificates to impress your boss.

There is no official Certificate of Completion generated for completed Learning Paths. Once you have completed every course listed in the designated Learning Path, a banner will appear, notifying members that they can display their accomplishment on LinkedIn by clicking the Post To My Profile button. However, unlike Certificates for individual courses, a PDF document will not be provided to share/save/print.

However, please note that members will still receive a Certificate of Completion for each individual course that is completed for the Learning Path they choose to watch.

You can also print your certificate. When viewing your completed certificate, you can click "save as PDF," and then you can print the PDF (certificate).
