Learning at Butler
LinkedIn Learning
LinkedIn Learning is available to all Butler Faculty, Staff, and Students. LinkedIn Learning gives you access to an expansive library of online courses that will help you develop skills to advance your career or further your learning.
You will need your Butler credentials to access LinkedIn Learning, but you can also connect your personal LinkedIn account for ease of access. Need help setting up your account? See our Knowledge Article: How Do I Log In to LinkedIn Learning?
Note: A LinkedIn account is not required to use LinkedIn Learning.
People Leader Training
The purpose of the People Leader Training series is to enable and equip people leaders with the necessary tools to manage their teams more effectively. Sessions are tailored for Butler employees who currently manage other employees, though all faculty and staff are welcome to participate.
