LinkedIn Learning resources to support you during the Covid-19 outbreak

LinkedIn Learning (LIL) has a lot of content to support us as we adjust to working, learning and teaching remotely.  We have shared some of these before, but now more than ever we need to focus on our wellbeing, adjust our work habits and develop skills for interacting remotely.   We also need to find ways to stay as fit and supple as we can, working in our adapted home environments.

We’ve created four collections you can have a look at when you have time.

• Working remotely
  Having more effective online meetings including Teams tips, managing teams remotely and work life balance.
• Keeping active
  Yoga and stretching at your desk, being mindful, ergonomics and more.  These are provided by Desk Yogi, a wellness platform within LIL.
• Personal Productivity
  How to be more resourceful, productive and make the most of  your time.  Includes guidance on improving your memory and speed reading.
• Mental health and wellbeing
  A wealth of resources on all aspects of wellbeing.  Includes Arianna Huffington’s Thrive series, dealing with stress, avoiding burnout and happiness tips.  Definitely one to dip into!

You may find it easier to access LIL on your mobile device so you can listen in the background and listen to/watch courses offline.
