How to Get Your Groups and Your Associations Off Your LinkedIn Profile

LinkedIn groups and associations help you meet similarly minded people.

LinkedIn lets you list groups and associations you are a part of on your public profile. Anyone who can view your public profile can also view these in a single section titled "Groups and Associations." These include both manually entered groups and associations, as well as official LinkedIn Groups you have joined. Your profile displays the latter in the form of Group logos. You can disable all of these by clicking inside a single box in your LinkedIn Settings page.

Instructions

1. Log in to your LinkedIn account, hover your cursor over your name in the upper right corner and click "Settings" when it appears below. This displays your LinkedIn Settings page.

2. Scroll down to the "Profile" section of your LinkedIn Settings page and click the "Edit Your Public Profile" link. This displays your public profile settings.

3. Click to deselect the box labeled "Groups" in the "Customize Your Public Profile" section in the upper right area of the page. The word "Saved" appears to the right.
