Pick edX if…
edX suits learners pursuing education or ongoing professional development through courses, certificates, microcredentials, and other programs. Institutions and businesses can consider its LMS integrations and administrative tools; app users who need timed or proctored exams must use something other than the app for those exams.
Pick LinkedIn Learning if…
It suits individual learners seeking career-focused courses, practice materials, or certificate preparation, as well as organizations looking for learning content and integrations. Mobile learners who want offline viewing need an active subscription.
