But, now let&#8217;s look closer at your LinkedIn profile and how not to overload it with certificates of completion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/learning\">LinkedIn Learning<\/a> and other learning platforms offer many courses on a variety of topics, from Business to Photography.  That&#8217;s great.  However, that can also be daunting when showing off completion of career related courses on your LinkedIn profile under <em>Licenses &amp; certifications<\/em> section.  If you complete a couple of courses, no big deal.  However, if you complete dozens of courses, the certificates of completion will dominate your LinkedIn profile.  This can diminish visibility of certificates of accomplishment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solidworks.com\/certifications\/mechanical-design-cswe-mechanical-design\">such as your CSWE<\/a>, and important career enhancing licenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, LinkedIn allowed you to reorder your certificates.  You were able to place the most important certificates at the top of the the <em>Licenses &amp; certifications<\/em> section.  Unfortunately, due to revamping of the LinkedIn profile user-interface some time ago, this ability was removed.  The current interface imposes a date-based list within <em>Licenses &amp; certifications<\/em> section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flood of Certificates<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"555\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-39-28.png?resize=720%2C555\" alt=\"Certificates of Completion\" class=\"wp-image-6187\" style=\"width:339px;height:262px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-39-28.png?resize=720%2C555 720w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-39-28.png?resize=300%2C231 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-39-28.png?resize=768%2C592 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-39-28.png?w=775 775w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>How does one mitigate the flood of career related certificates of completion without dominating your LinkedIn profile?  You could be very selective as to which certifications you include.  You could also start your own website where you list all of your certificates, with a link from your LinkedIn profile.  However, if you really want to show your training results directly on your profile, there&#8217;s another couple of options that may work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning Paths<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On LinkedIn Learning, Learning Paths are groups of courses that are combined for a particular topic-specific training goal.  When you complete the Learning Path, you get a special single certificate of completion for the entire training path.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you cannot find a learning path for your role or training goals, you can create your own, with a catch.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leverage LinkedIn Learning Collections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>LinkedIn Learning allows you to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ZrrTBdV7NLs\">create Collections<\/a> for your personal use.  A Collection folder allows you group saved courses.  For example, you can create a collection called &#8220;Business Leadership&#8221;.  Then, peruse the library of LinkedIn Learning in the Business category and add 5 to 10 closely related courses about leadership in business into your Business Leadership collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you build your collection, it&#8217;s time to complete your courses.  As you complete each course, you will earn a Certificate of Completion.  However, do not download individual certificates of completion right away.  Wait until you complete the whole collection.   LinkedIn Learning has a bad habit of redesigning their certificates frequently.  If you take 12 months to complete your collection, the style of certificate could change.  To avoid this issue, download your certificates at one time when you&#8217;ve completed the last course in your collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Add your Collection to your Profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve completed all of the courses in your collection, use a desktop computer with Adobe Acrobat Pro or other other application that allows you to edit PDF files. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Download the individual certificates for all of the courses into a special location on your harddrive.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6qaxLEybuxA\">Acrobat (or other PDF editor) to combine all the certificates&#8217; PDFs<\/a> into one PDF.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Upload this combined PDF to your Google Drive or similar cloud storage (where you can allow public access to the file).  <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you are ready to add your combine certificates to your LinkedIn profile&#8217;s <em>Licenses &amp; certifications<\/em> section.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>While you are logged into your LinkedIn profile, goto your  <em>Licenses &amp; certifications<\/em> section.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If it doesn&#8217;t exist yet, you can add it using the <em>Add Profile Section<\/em> button near the top of your profile page.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use the + button in the section to add your new entry.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create a title in the <em>Name <\/em>field that briefly summarizes the collection, then include a keyword from each of the certificates, like &#8220;Business Leadership: Speaking, Confident Communication, Collaboration, Gaining buying from other Managers, Negotiations, Leading by Example&#8221;  There is a limit on the number of characters within the <em>Name <\/em>field, so be as brief as possible.  You may wish to add up the total time of all the courses and include that at the end of the <em>Name <\/em>field as well, like &#8220;[8hrs 25mins]&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the <em>Issuing Organization<\/em>, enter the name of the organization that issued the certificates, like LinkedIn Learning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the<em> Issue Date<\/em> fields, add the month and year of the most recently completed certificate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ignore <em>Expiration Date<\/em> fields.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the <em>Credential ID<\/em> field, add the credential number from your most recently completed certificate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In the <em>Credential Link URL<\/em> field, add the URL for your combined PDF.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><em>Save<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"656\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-35-04.png?resize=720%2C656\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6186\" style=\"width:435px;height:396px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-35-04.png?resize=720%2C656 720w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-35-04.png?resize=300%2C273 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-35-04.png?w=738 738w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Now review your entry from the LinkedIn profile page to make sure it matches your desired intent.

For the first 8 years of my career, I was an AutoCAD professional. I utilized AutoLISP and many other AutoCAD customization features to streamline drafting activities for 6+ drafters and designers. I authored several custom functions, one of which was published in the March 1997 issue of Cadalyst Magazine. Since 1998, I've been used SolidWorks non-stop. I've worked to utilize the SolidWorks' user environment to simplify drafting and design activities for 20+ engineers. I've created this website to provide current information about SolidWorks from a variety of contributors. More recently, I am now employed by Dassault Systemes as SOLIDWORKS Sr. Product Definition Manager to improve drawing, annotation and MBD related areas.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog","https:\/\/x.com\/swsuper"],"url":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/?author=2"}]}},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/2023-08-09_21-39-28.png?fit=775%2C597","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6182"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6182\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6218,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6182\/revisions\/6218"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6187"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6182"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6182"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fcsuper.com\/swblog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fseries&post=6182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
