Lynda.com provides a comprehensive library of online video courses covering a range of digital, creative and business skills topics. A campus-wide licence has just been procured for use by all staff and students.

This exciting new resource supports ISG and wider University strategic plans by transforming the way we offer digital skills training, increasing our capacity for digital skills development and enabling us to meet our aspirations. It will make a key contribution to Digital Transformation, the Learning, Teaching & Student Experience programme and the Service Excellence Programme. It will also help to develop a digital culture within the University and support staff and students to improve their digital skills for work, study and life.

This project merges and replaces the three existing Lynda.com projects as identified below:

• ISI001 Lynda for digital skills - rollout and embed https://www.projects.ed.ac.uk/project/isi001 (Initiation stage)
• ISG Portfolio Projects (OTHISG) 16/17 https://www.projects.ed.ac.uk/planning/project/529 (Application stage)
• PO231 Lynda.com integration and roll out https://www.projects.ed.ac.uk/project/p0231 (Planning stage)

This project  TEL034 Lynda.com Implementation supercedes all of the above and will coordinate the activities required to deliver this platform to all staff and students.
