There are multiple editions available in SAP Learning Hub, each with it's own tailored catalog of learning content.

Access to the learning content within this support edition (whether via direct hyperlink or via the search catalog) is only accessible to registered SAP Enterprise Support Academy users. If learning content is not being displayed, then access may require a separate registration process, in addition to previous registrations to other editions you may already have performed.
To register your user to be able to access learning content from the SAP Enterprise Support edition, powered by SAP Enterprise Support Academy, see --> "How can I register to SAP Learning Hub, edition for SAP Enterprise Support?"
Note: non-registered users to the support edition may receive encrypted error messages when attempting to access the learning content, and the proper display of learning content may fail, as non-registered users are not entitled to consume the protected material.
