Customize your Viva Learning experience
You can customize your Viva Learning experience to fit your organization’s brand and the needs of your employees. Your organization’s Viva Learning app can display a custom Viva Learning icon and label in the Teams app bar. This customization takes place in the Teams admin center and requires the Teams admin permissions or higher.
We recommended that you also apply app settings that pre-pin and preinstall the app to make sure people in your organization can more easily discover and use it.
You can customize the Viva Learning application by following the instructions as outlined in the Microsoft Teams app customization documentation.
