LinkedIn Learning at MCC

LinkedIn Learning Logo
 
Manchester Community College is embarking on a LinkedIn Learning pilot program that will be available to current MCC students, faculty and staff free of charge through December 2021. LinkedIn Learning is an e-learning platform and leading provider of online training content. This guide provides instructions for MCC users on how to properly access and use LinkedIn Learning. 

Access is restricted to CURRENT MCC students, staff, and faculty. An active college email address is required to register. 

Activating a LinkedIn Learning Account

Follow these easy steps to activate:

  1. Visit https://www.linkedin.com/learning/activate
  2. Use your MCC email address (ex. [username]@mail.ct.edu or [username]@mcc.commnet.edu).  
  3. Make sure to enter your email username (this is different from your NetID). Do not use a personal email account. If you don't know your student email address, you can use the NetID Lookup Tool to find it.

What if I don't receive an email message to activate my account?

If you don't receive an activation email from 'messages-noreply@linkedin.com' after signing up or don't receive an email invitation to join for an MCC course, please contact one of MCC's LinkedIn Learning administrators (Debbie Herman or Burcin Calafiore) for assistance.
