Frequently asked
Common questions
How is OpenSesame different from LinkedIn Learning? ⌄
LinkedIn Learning is built for individual career development — it's great for people who want to add a certificate to their LinkedIn profile. OpenSesame is built for enterprise L&D from day one — every course is reviewed by subject-matter experts, every customer gets a dedicated CSM, and we have 13,000+ compliance and safety courses that LinkedIn Learning simply doesn't offer.
Can I switch from LinkedIn Learning to OpenSesame easily? ⌄
Yes — most customers are up and running within 1–2 weeks of signing. Our dedicated onboarding team handles the full transition and integrates with your existing LMS, so there's minimal disruption to your learners.
How does OpenSesame pricing work? ⌄
OpenSesame offers flexible plans designed around your organization's size and training needs — no hidden fees, no surprises. View plan options → or book a demo and we'll walk you through what makes sense for your team.
Does OpenSesame work with our existing LMS? ⌄
Yes — OpenSesame integrates with 100+ LMS platforms including Workday Learning, Cornerstone, SAP SuccessFactors, Degreed, and more. Setup typically takes less than a day with help from our onboarding team.
Does OpenSesame have compliance training? ⌄
Yes — OpenSesame has 13,000+ compliance and safety courses covering OSHA, harassment prevention, data privacy, DEI, and more. This is one of the biggest gaps with LinkedIn Learning, which focuses on professional skills and has no meaningful compliance library.
