1. Start your 1-month free trial:

You can get a monthly subscription to LinkedIn Learning for 29.99 USD, with the first month free as a trial period. During the trial, users can take advantage of all courses, certificates, LinkedIn Premium features.

  • This will redirect you to the Premium page

  • Click Manage Premium on the right sidebar

  • Select “Cancel subscription”

  • Finally, complete the remaining prompts to complete the cancellation

Pretty much every library has partnered up with LinkedIn learning (previously Lynda) to provide free courses to their members. So, to see if your local library has the service for free, you can simply search in Google for your library name, followed by “LinkedIn Learning” in brackets. Alternatively, you can search for “LinkedIn” on the library website.

Yeah, the downside of this method is you might not find the exact course you want to learn, but doesn’t it is better than nothing, right?

3. Have a free course in Linkedin learning after 24 hours

Many people on the internet claim that they have unlocked premium Linkedin learning courses for free.

And yes, you still can have the certificate after finishing that course, but you can only unlock one course that way.

Bonus tips: Linkedin learning has so many collaborations with other companies, so you should follow the official Linkedin fan page to have the latest information about the collaboration. The latest event is a collaboration between Linkedin learning with Microsoft to have over ten free premium courses for highly demanding careers.


Conclusion

The sad truth is there is no direct method to access all premium courses on LinkedIn Learning without a fee, and you will have to check by hit and trial to have those courses.
