What is LinkedIn Learning/Lynda?

LinkedIn Learning/Lynda is a site that offers video courses taught by experts about business skills, software skills, and for what you are probably here for… creative skills!

As Simmons students, we have access to the site which is a great resource for learning and freshening up on skills. There are courses on Adobe programs, specific skills and techniques, networking, productivity, industry standards, the list goes on.

In order to access the site, head over to lynda.com (LinkedIn Learning) and follow the “sign-in” link. From there, choose the option “sign in with your organization portal” using your Simmons login and password.

Voila!

The full courses can be rather long, but they are broken up into digestible sections that are a few minutes long.

Take this Illustrator 2021 Essential Training course for example.

The full course is 5.5 hours…

But the sections are only a few minutes each.

If you are looking to learn something specific, you can browse through the contents of the course and jump to where you need to be.

Per usual, the Lab Agents are always here to help you out and walk you through any issues you may be having. Happy learning!
