🌍 How to Become a LinkedIn Learning Instructor


Becoming an instructor on LinkedIn Learning means teaching your skills to people all over the world. It’s a big opportunity, but it takes preparation.

Here’s what you need 👇

🎯 1. Be very good at one skill

LinkedIn Learning wants people who really know what they teach.

✔ Usually 5+ years of experience
✔ Real work experience (not just theory)

Popular skills include:

  • 📊 Data Analysis
  • 🎨 Graphic Design
  • 🔐 Cyber Security
  • 🤖 Artificial Intelligence
  • 💻 Software Development
  • 📈 Digital Marketing
  • 🧠 Business & Leadership

👩‍🏫 2. Show that you can teach

Knowing a skill is not enough — you must teach it clearly.

Good proof includes:

  • 🧑‍🏫 Training people before
  • 🧑‍💼 Corporate or community training
  • 🎥 YouTube videos or online lessons
  • 🖥 Webinars or workshops

LinkedIn Learning likes instructors who explain things in simple steps. 

🎥 3. Use good video and sound

Your lessons must look professional.

You’ll need:

  • 📹 Clear video (HD)
  • 🎙 Clean sound (no noise)
  • 💡 Good lighting
  • 🙂 Confidence in front of the camera

You don’t need a studio — just a neat setup.

🧑‍💻 4. Build a strong LinkedIn profile

LinkedIn checks:

  • Your profile
  • Your experience
  • What you post
  • How active you are

📌 Share tips, lessons, and helpful posts to grow trust.

📝 5. Apply or get invited

There are two ways:

  • ✅ Apply on the LinkedIn Learning Instructor page
  • ⭐ Get invited if your work stands out

You may be asked for:

  • Your LinkedIn profile
  • Course ideas
  • Sample teaching videos 

💰 6. Create the course & earn

If accepted:

  • LinkedIn helps improve your course
  • You record the lessons
  • LinkedIn markets the course
  • You earn money based on views and learning time

⚠️ Important to know

🚫 It is competitive
🚀 Many instructors already teach online or in companies
🏆 But once accepted, your profile becomes very strong globally

🛣 Smart path to success

Many instructors first:

·      Teach on YouTube or Udemy

·      Grow their LinkedIn audience

·      Get training experience

·      Apply to LinkedIn Learning

If you love teaching and have real skills, you can become a LinkedIn Learning instructor. Start small, share knowledge often, and keep improving.
