This is the first of three messages we're sharing with you during the month of August to highlight the value and flexibility of LinkedIn Learning licenses.

Cultivating Inclusion in the Workplace: Support your DEI goals with 90% off LinkedIn Learning

Is diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) part of your agency’s training and development goals? LinkedIn Learning licenses give you access to more than 100 courses, learning paths, and audio files on diversity and inclusion. 

You can also use a learner challenge to build DEI competency. This is a series of short videos and learning activities delivered over a few weeks.

LinkedIn's ready-made learner challenge, "Cultivating Inclusion in the Workplace," uses 10 selections from LinkedIn Learning courses, including:

• Fundamentals of an Inclusive Mindset
• Avoid Microaggressions
• Building a Foundation for Safe Spaces

Most videos are under 5 minutes and can be a great introduction to DEI competency for LinkedIn Learning license holders. Promo resources like playbooks, toolkits and schedules help make group participation easy. Learner challenges are just one of many ways you can use LinkedIn Learning licenses for skill building, team building, and professional development.

LinkedIn Learning

I’ve enjoyed instructional videos about communication,
personal effectiveness, leadership, time management, accounting,
grammar, diversity and inclusion, managing emotions,
coping with grief, and even getting better sleep.

I think everyone has something to gain from taking
advantage of their access to LinkedIn Learning.
