LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional network with hundreds of millions of members, and growing rapidly. Lynda.com and LinkedIn learning are both online learning tools.

LinkedIn acquired Lynda.com in 2015 and have since created LinkedIn Learning, which merges the best parts of Lynda.com and LinkedIn to further the mission of helping professionals be better at what they do.

LinkedIn Learning combines all of Lynda.com’s high-quality courses with insights from LinkedIn data to provide you with personalized course recommendations based on your current job, skills, and what professionals like you are learning. With LinkedIn Learning, you’ll also get access to LinkedIn’s Premium Career features, like InMail, access to who’s viewed their profile, and competitive insights on other job applicants.

Careers and Employment have recently extended their graduate access to allow you to utilise our support for 3 years after your course ends; your LinkedIn Learning access will be aligned to this for the duration of our partnership with LinkedIn Learning.
