I always bristle at this use of ‘learnings,’ especially in cases where ‘lessons’ would suffice. However, it turns out this usage goes back to Middle English and is also in Shakespeare’s Cymbeline:
Puts to him all the learnings that his time
Could make him the receiver of, which he took
As we do air, fast as ’twas ministered,
