Viva Learning is one of the four modules of Microsoft Viva, an employee experience platform built into Teams.

Microsoft Viva Learning is a learning app you can add into Microsoft Teams and provides you access to free online training from LinkedIn and Microsoft. If your organisation works with an existing training provider, you might find their content in Viva Learning as well.

To add Viva Learning to Teams, click on the three dots in your Teams app list and search for Viva Learning:
