SDD20: LinkedIn Learning: Microlearning Critical Skills Delivered in Bite-Sized Online Videos
Hours: 1.5
LinkedIn Learning is a platform that provides access to microlearning video training pathways that present critical information regarding a topic in small, chunked videos. LinkedIn Learning training pathways are self-paced. The LinkedIn Library provides access to over 15,000 courses and covers a broad variety of topics. Available courses can help individuals address gaps in knowledge related to leadership, management, teaching strategies, and instructional technology training, among many others. LinkedIn also has courses to help individuals learn Blackboard and even Adobe Creative Cloud software. Once individuals complete microlearning training pathways, earned certificates are available and can be printed or shared to your individual LinkedIn profile. Since July 2019, ACC personnel have viewed over 1,054 hours of LinkedIn training videos, and accessed roughly 2,493 courses. Please attend this workshop to learn how you can access and use LinkedIn Learning to learn critical skills delivered in online, bite-sized videos.
