LinkedIn Learning access is ending
WPI’s LinkedIn Learning subscription ends on November 1, 2026, after three years.
What’s next: We’re developing a process for employees to request reimbursement for LinkedIn Learning, and we’re looking more broadly at other options for professional development. We’ll share an update before the Thanksgiving holiday break.
