Did you know that Texas State University offers many great resources to students? One of the resources you should take advantage of is LinkedIn Learning! Thankfully, as a student, I learned that Texas State University offers LinkedIn Learning to currently enrolled Bobcats.
What is LinkedIn Learning?
Our educational path does not always include explanations on subjects that are vital to our personal growth. The courses provided by LinkedIn Learning can enhance subjects, lectures, and learning. LinkedIn Learning has over 15,000 courses that can help grow your understanding in various subjects. Students can use this as an aid in their course load and their growth in subjects that are not covered in their educational path. What’s great about LinkedIn Learning is that you can discover topics you may not have known about, enhance your skill sets, and track all course work you do with certificates. LinkedIn Learning has courses pertaining to all subjects and is continuing the expansion of what they offer users.
Advantages of using LinkedIn Learning
Expanding your knowledge on software that is a preferred qualification for future jobs can be stressful. LinkedIn Learning gives us the ability to learn these skills while showing potential employers you have completed courses related to the job description. Your LinkedIn profile can be filled with certificates from LinkedIn Learning once you complete a course. Having these certificates on your profile draws attention to your skill set and what you can contribute to an employer. Many want to become better communicators, improve their time management, and evolve their characteristics working in a team setting – LinkedIn Learning can help you improve these skills which in turn can help you in your professional career. Below are only a few out of the thousands of courses offered:
