Basically no reason. They are the same thing. Between the two I would say Coursera is substantially more user friendly and just generally works better. Their courses are very similar to LinkedIn learning in that it's mostly videos and basic coursework as well as skills assessments and different badges and what not you can take quick tests to get in different categories to see how your current knowledge stacks up etc.

They both offer a lot of certificate only courses. I think Coursera offers a higher number of college credit or partnered industry certifications etc than LinkedIn learning does. That's based on using LinkedIn learning about 2 years ago vs using Coursera within the past 6 months though so LinkedIn learning may have expanded the number of college credit courses and such in that time as well.

Based on my experience Coursera is much more involved in a community sense where you review fellow students work and they review yours. For college credit courses your work is eventually reviewed by actual college staff but normally only at the very end as they don't want to waste time reviewing work for someone dropping out after getting a couple certifications but not the actual college license or recognized certificate for completion of the entire course. I don't recall LinkedIn learning having much in the way of real time feedback or getting to review other people's work so you had a better idea of what good vs bad looked like when doing your own assignments.

Depending where you live your public library, dshs, worksource, unemployment, etc may offer free access to these services as well. LinkedIn learning and Coursera to my knowledge are the two most common or popular ones for companies or government agencies etc to contract with for free access.
Before you fire the laser on this one, make sure you can get a free 12 months access to edX which is the main competitor to Coursera. I am pretty sure it doesn't require to be a Verizon customer but still a great place to get CS50 and other great Harvard courses

I am currently taking the Cloud Data Analytics course on Google Cloud Skills Boost website. I have prior knowledge of Data Analytics and I wanted to check how good is the program. Definitely recommend it. Plus you can share your certificates/badges on X/LinkedIn for bragging rights.

To get free credits you can join the Google Developers Program website for free and join the Google Cloud Innovators Group . When you are part of the Innovators group you receive every month 35 Credits to use them for all the paid labs on the platform.

You can also Learn AI, ML, Cloud Architect and Cloud Engineer for free 🆓 Pretty cool!

Any reason why I would want this considering I have access to LinkedIn learning via library.

Are the certificates and what not here really better accepted?

This is only for "new" members. My subscription expires in early January. Will I be considered "new" if I sign up again by January 27?
