LinkedIn Learning
As of August 19th, UNT will be upgrading its Lynda.com training to LinkedIn Learning. LinkedIn Learning is an intuitive product that features exciting new tools to help maximize learner engagement – all with the same great Lynda.com content.
LinkedIn Learning is provided free of charge to UNT System students, faculty and staff. You can browse through more than 10,000 courses. With the upgrade, in addition to the English library, you have our multi-language access for courses in - German, French, Spanish, Japanese, Mandarin, and Portuguese.
Through the video-based instructions students, faculty and staff can learn new business technology and creative skills. Each course is a series of short videos, so users can learn at their own pace and on their own time. All videos are viewable on computers or via LinkedIn Learning’s mobile app for iPhone, iPad or Android. For a great overview, watch the How to Use LinkedIn Learning course. If you have any questions or need help, please contact the UNTS service desk at 940.565.4357 or ithelp@untsystem.edu.
