The "business" area is actually LinkedIn Learning. I don't know if it's full access or what, but I signed up.

LinkedIn learning can be used for some PDUs and CEUs.

Good resource thanks

They've already got me set up (I just need to finish per the email I just received). It doesn't say how long the LinkedIn thing will last. It does come with yet another .edu email address.

Here's an update: I was trying to help my friend sign up for this and it asks if you are an Indiana resident. When she checked "no" it thanked her for her time and gave her his message; "Thank you for your interest in our 10K free trainings, however these courses are only available to Indiana residents.
If you would like to pay direct for one of our other courses, please submit another registration form.
Thank you,
Workforce and Careers Team"

Interesting. I am not an Indiana resident and I got the LinkedIn deal.

Yes so did I but I think they updated it in the last few days.

Besides the LinkedIn deal, did anyone get access to their other 10K courses? I just received an email today about the other courses...
I guess there was a glitch in their system when I signed up for the Cyber Security or AWS Cloud courses. I don't need to sign up again.
The email just prompts me to reply to the email address with the course I want to take. I forgot what my selection was now!

I did the electrical systems SACA certification. When they first announced it, the wording on the site said it offered a pathway to college credit but they never answered my inquiry about that and they have since changed the language to not mention the possibility of credit. I'm swamped with all my other freebies right now so I didn't pursue any of their other offerings since they don't directly benefit me. I'd be interested in the Linkedin Learning and cyber sec/aws courses but I already have free access to those through a veteran program.

I see they added some more stuff and I did ask them about one of their other certs but again they didn't respond to my inquiry and it's no longer a priority for me since I have more important, time sensitive classes at the moment.
