Human Resources at Illinois State University announced LinkedIn Learning as a new and exciting personal and professional development resource in Illinois State University’s e-learning portfolio last fiscal year. We are pleased to announce for the academic year 2022–2023, LinkedIn Learning will be available to all employees including faculty, staff, graduate assistants, and student employees.

Why we chose to partner with LinkedIn Learning

LinkedIn Learning is an award-winning industry leader in online training, with a digital library of more than 16,000 courses, covering a wide range of topics that encompass equity and inclusion, technical aptitude and application, leadership, mindfulness, and so much more. Courses are accessible 24/7 from a desktop or mobile device allowing for self-paced and on-demand learning and will be integrated via central login through My.IllinoisState.edu.

Lifelong learning reflects Illinois State University’s core values, and LinkedIn Learning offers content aligned with Educate  Connect  Elevate: Illinois State–The Strategic Plan for Illinois’ First Public University 2018–2023.

Accessing your account and getting started

Visit LinkedIn Learning by logging in directly from My.IllinoisState.edu (within the “online tools” or directly from the main “search”). Watch an entire course or individual videos—some are as short as four or five minutes. Bookmark courses that suit your interests, keep track of the courses taken and receive a certificate when a course is completed. Those with a LinkedIn profile will also be allowed to integrate learning with that profile.

Need help getting started or after you have logged in?
