Change your Degreed Content Language

You can change your Degreed content language to more prominently display content available to you in any of Degreed's supported languages.

Buttons and messages on your Degreed site remain in the selected display language; see Change your Degreed Site Language for procedures.

Changing your Degreed content language does not translate content; instead, it more prominently displays content available in the selected language to you within your Degreed experience. Content items in the selected language are prioritized in your feed, search results, and browse results. Content can still appear in languages outside of your set preferred language(s). 

If your organization has enabled the localization framework, Degreed links related language versions of the same content together and shows you the version that best matches your language settings instead of showing every version. See how we choose a language variant below. If your organization has not enabled the localization framework, this behavior does not apply, and the platform continues to work as described above.

How a Language Variant Is Selected

When your organization enables the localization framework, the platform links content items available in multiple languages so you see one version instead of duplicate versions in your feed, search results, and browse results. The platform selects which language version to display using the following order:

1. Your preferred content language.
2. Your additional content languages preferences. 
3. Your organization’s default language
4. The content’s default language
5. Any other available language, if none of the above are available

To Change your Preferred Content Language

1. From the side navigation menu, select Profile > Settings.
   Your profile Settings page displays with the Profile tab open by default.
2. Click the Account tab.
3. In the Content Language section, either select your primary, preferred language from the dropdown list or begin typing the language name and then select it from the results.
   
4. Use the Additional Content Languages field to choose any other languages you want to see content for. You can select from the list or begin typing a language name and then select it. Multiple selections are supported.
5. Click Apply > Save Changes.
   Your site reloads and displays content items in the selected language.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I see content in other languages in my feed even though I have my language setting set to English (or another language)?

Why do I see only one version of content that used to appear in multiple languages?
If your organization has enabled the localization framework, we link related language versions of the same content so you see one version instead of duplicate versions across your feed, search results, and browse results. Degreed selects the version most relevant to you based on your language settings. See How a Language Variant is Selected above.
