In the spirit of the New Year, and while we’re all eager and inspired to set new goals and resolutions for 2016, now is a great time to develop a new skill or two through online learning company Lynda.com!
As a UBC employee, we benefit from a free subscription to its huge video library of courses in business, software, technology and the creative arts.

Offering advice and guidance from experts in each field through high quality, easy to follow video tutorials, Lynda is a really great resource for personal and professional development.
