Create child groups as an admin in Learning

Last updated: 2 years ago
Child groups are a nested form of groups, or groups within groups. As an admin, you can create child groups on LinkedIn Learning from Learning Management.

Important to know

To access the unified Admin Center, admins can use two entry points, depending on whether or not their profile is connected. Users with connected profiles can use the Admin Center tile in the header or select Me >Manage users in Admin Center. Users without connected profiles can select Me > Manage users in Admin Center.
