Frequently Asked Questions:
What are the differences between Learning Paths and Collections?
Collections are groups of courses or videos that help you learn a specific topic. Videos in collections do not need to be viewed in a particular order, or need to be watched completely. These videos will not offer certificates for completion. Collections are for learners who like to pick what they learn and do not mind the lack of structure a collection provides.
Learning Paths are collections of courses that are meant to be viewed in a particular order. Depending on the learning path, learners may earn a certificate on completion. This certificate attaches skill sets and topics learned from the course to a connected LinkedIn account. Learning Paths are recommended for learners who seek a more structured style of learning.
