LinkedIn Learning

The online training service provides access to LinkedIn Learning—a full library of self-study software tutorials available anytime, anywhere. Formerly lynda.com.

Although LinkedIn Learning is an approved tool for UW-Madison faculty, staff and students, we discourage its use when applied directly to assessing student knowledge or performance. 

1. LinkedIn Learning training is available for UW Madison.
   Search for GitLab-specific training (example: Gitlab for CI/CD and DevSecOps).
