LTI Tool for LinkedIn Learning

LinkedIn Learning offers a Learning Technology Integration (LTI) tool to allow you to integrate LinkedIn Learning video content directly into your Canvas courses. You can embed entire courses or single videos into your pages, discussion posts, assignment instructions, and even create graded assignments that are graded once a student views the entire video/course. 

When using the LinkedIn Learning LTI tool for the first time, you may be prompted to log into LinkedIn Learning. Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge are recommended browsers to use with this tool.
