LinkedIn Learning!

Hello, Fellow Bears!

Have you been wanting to learn a new work-related skill- like Excel? Or learn a new hobby- Like drawing? Or maybe you’re still trying to figure out how to work the Apple Watch you received over the holiday break? This is just the beginning of ALL the topics that LinkedIn Learning provides for FREE- at home or during work hours.

The program offers three main topics- Business, Creative, and Technology. There is also a special topic- Missouri State University- where you can explore collections that fellow Bears have created for their work teams.

You can watch a video that runs around 5 minutes, a Course that runs approximately 15 minutes, or you can do a Learning path where you will receive an in-depth lesson on your chosen topic.

Right now, I’m brushing up on my rusty piano skills, learning how to Master Excel, and watching videos on how to stretch at my desk (this one has been a blessing). What I like the most about this product is that the videos are done by real people who know what they are talking about with facts to back up what they are teaching you.

Some other topics that you may find useful are:

Make sure to take advantage of this opportunity as there are limited licenses, and our contract ends in May.

Be Well Bears!
