With Career Insights, admins can see how learners are advancing in their careers, which informs their career development strategy. This report provides visibility of career goals that exist in an organization, how learners are making progress toward the goals, and what careers learners are exploring.

This data empowers learning admins to curate and distribute relevant learning content on LinkedIn Learning to support learners on their career journeys. 

From Learning Management, select Insights > Careers.

We’ve made improvements, like not gating the reporting by minimum number of career goals set, included Highlights for top metrics, and added metrics for: 

• Role guide engagement: Role guide views and clicks 
• Career goal progress: Employee career plans created and started, time spent and average time spent 
• Skills developed in career plans: (Not career goals) ranked by employees starting them and time spent

Career Insights is available to customers with a Career Hub account.

The Career Insights report is localized into all LinkedIn Learning languages.

All data points below are sourced from learners who have set a career goal. For example, if a learner has viewed a role guide, but not set a career goal, this data point will not appear as a role guide view on Career Insights.

No. These data sets stem from the LinkedIn standardized taxonomy.

The employee career journey highlights include an overview roles of explored, career goals, and career plans based on the date range selected to the left 

• Roles explored: This insight highlights which role guide has the most interest based on unique role guide viewers  
• Career goals: This insight highlights the top career goal set based on the percentage of employees that either set their career goal as: grow and advance in my current career, transition into a new career or develop skills to manage teams 
• Career plans: This insight highlights the average time spent on career plans by employees.

This section helps admins understand the number of unique viewers for Role Guides over time and the top five-viewed role guides in the date range selected, with the option to expand to all roles. This capability informs you where interest in developing in certain roles is and helps you navigate career conversations.  

• Total unique viewers: Number of unique users who have viewed (or visited) at least 1 role guide in the date range selected. This is not a net new metric in the Careers Insights report. 
  

This section can be expanded to “Show all role guides�� with standardized job title and job family ranked in decreasing order by unique viewers, and also include role guide views and role guide clicks.

This section helps admins understand how employees are advancing in their careers, which informs their career development strategy. 

• Career goals: Admins have visibility into the top roles learners are exploring and how many learners are setting career goals in their organization. 
• Employees Created Plans: Total number of unique employees that have created at least 1 plan in the time range. 
• Employees Started Plans: Total number of unique employees with at least > 1 second of time spent in at least 1 plan during the time range. 
• Total time spent: Total time spent across all plans during time range. 
• Avg time spent: Total time spent/started plans.

Given employees' career journeys are not linear and not all employees will select a career goal, we want to reflect the full actions across the entire journey. There is also limited adoption of this feature, so we’ve invested in showing the full journey and other filters to come. 

Certifications reporting, defined as CEUs earned and professional certificate completions, is not as frequently used as other reports so we are reworking this reporting to be more useful to admins. Reporting on CEUs earned is available via downloadable reports.

To determine a learner’s function, LinkedIn Learning maps the job title to one of 26 functions that exist within LinkedIn’s taxonomy. For example, the job title “Software engineer” would fall under the function “Engineer". To source a learner’s job title, we first retrieve the information from their...

• Enterprise profile, after which, if empty,
• Member profile (if a learner has connected their LinkedIn Learning account with their Linkedn.com account).

No. Learning is not limited to specific skills associated with a career goal because our current skill and content mapping might not capture all the skills and content associated with a learner's career goal/desired role. As we continue to develop our skills and content mapping, we'll look to shift the reporting to only focus on engagement related to the goal. In the meantime, you won't miss any engagement.

The report counts only the most recent goal, plus associated engagements (course views, job views, and so on) towards the learner. For example:

• The learner creates a goal (G1) to "pivot" at time A, and later changes the goal (G2) to "advance" at time B.
• Engagement between time A and time B counts towards G1; after time B, they count towards G2.
  

To see internal job posting views in your organization, your organization must have binding as optional or required. If your organization does not allow binding, we won't surface this actionable insight. 

No. Career Insights currently shows insights at an aggregate level. As an admin, you can filter for groups of employees (for example, by department), but we don't provide information on an individual employee level. If you filter by a specific group, the report will not populate if fewer than 20 learners are included. 

Currently, the Career Insights report is accessible only for full admins and sub-admins that have the Reports permission.
