In order to support everyone in the development of new skills and career advancement, the PSL School offers not only classroom training but also access to LinkedIn Learning service for all staff members.

"It seemed important to us to propose an adaptable and innovative solution that enables everyone to define the skills they wish to develop either professionally or personally and to easily show their progress in their resume. "says Florence Gelin, head of the PSL School and Deputy managing director of Dauphine-PSL.

The LinkedIn Learning platform will enable all faculty and administrative staff, whether they have a LinkedIn profile or not, to access more than 14,000 courses given by international specialists in different fields of expertise.
The courses offered include business or personal development training (communication, project management, management, community management, time management...) as well as more specific training (programming courses, information systems management, introduction to the basics of colour for computer graphics artists...); such courses, when they already exist, are sometimes available only to a limited audience.

Two options are available to benefit from this service:

  • Staff already entolled in the PSL School platform will receive an invitation email.
  • Staff not yet registered on the PSL School platform are invited to enroll, then they will receive an invitation to benefit from LinkedIn Learning training.

New LinkedIn Learning invitations will be sent out each week to new subscribers.
