Please note that you can only access course content through the TCPL login page, and not by directly visiting the LinkedIn Learning homepage.

After creating an account (library card number and 4-digit pin), you can watch videos, create playlists, bookmark pages, and obtain Certificates of Completion (that can be uploaded to your LinkedIn profile). Many courses also feature exercise files, so that if you're watching a tutorial about Microsoft Excel you can follow the activity with downloadable, pre-populated Excel spreadsheet files.
