This moment — marked by economic uncertainty, fast-changing skills, and accelerating AI adoption — calls for a new approach to career development.

That’s why were excited to introduce LinkedIn Learning Career Hub to help companies develop and retain critical talent for a dynamic world. It’s the only platform powered by an organization’s internal job and skill architecture, real-time insights from over 1 billion career paths, and personalized learning experiences to accelerate skill development.

Across the global economy, AI is reshaping work, and the gap between the skills employees have and the ones businesses need is widening. Nearly half (49%) of talent development practitioners say their leaders don’t believe employees are equipped to execute on strategy.

At the same time, the workforce is evolving. Today’s professionals will likely hold twice as many jobs as their counterparts just 15 years ago. They’re hungry for growth, and if they can’t find it internally, they’ll look elsewhere.

Without intentional career development, companies risk a stagnant, disengaged workforce, a shrinking internal pipeline of future-ready talent, and the costly job of hiring new talent. Adding to the pain: too often, hiring, learning, and internal mobility remain siloed and disconnected.

That’s why career development matters now more than ever. It sits at the intersection of business need and individual ambition — where motivation meets organizational goals, and learning drives real impact. But most organizations aren’t acting on this opportunity. Two-thirds of organizations haven’t yet figured out how to deliver impactful career development as part of their talent strategies.

How LinkedIn Learning Career Hub will reinvent career development for employees

Rolling out later this year, Career Hub has already attracted charter customers from around the world. When the product is generally available, LinkedIn Learning Hub customers will get instant access to Career Hub.

Career Hub has all of the content and capabilities that companies and people have loved about LinkedIn Learning for the past 10 years. It’s also introducing a new, more agile and impactful approach to career development that enables both deep personalization and broad scale.  

It does this by drawing on data and insights from LinkedIn’s Economic Graph, with deep understanding of the world’s professionals, including data from 1 billion careers, more than 500 million skills added to LinkedIn profiles each year, and 5 million profile updates per minute.

“Our employees are looking for more detail on career paths at our organization, and LinkedIn Learning Career Hub allows us to bring it to them,” says Bree Sykes, senior learning and organizational development business partner at Tripadvisor, the global travel guidance platform based in Needham, Massachusetts, that is one of the charter customers using Career Hub.
