The LinkedIn Learning training library contains over 1,000 titles featuring a wide variety of software packages, such as Adobe and Microsoft Office products, video- and audio-editing software, web development applications, scripting, and 3D design packages. Princeton has a premium subscription to the service, which includes exercise files (the same files the instructor uses in the class,) so that it’s possible to follow the examples given in the course videos. Most courses also have a transcript that can be searched to find the exact topic of interest within the course; courses with transcripts also have closed-captioning.

Anyone with a valid Princeton Netid has access to this portal via single-sign.
