<div>Hello all,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Members of Editors are now invited to the Lynda Campus presentation this Thursday that I mentioned at the meeting today. Please RSVP if you plan to attend, so that Mark – Manager of the IS&T Training Team – can make sure there are enough seats. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Mark has also created an account for Editors so that you can try out Lynda Campus before its official launch at MIT in January.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please see the email below for details.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Regards,</div>

As many of you know, IS&T offers lynda.com’s online training free of charge to MIT students, faculty, and staff. lynda.com’s award-winning catalog of over 1,200 courses covers everything from Microsoft Office and Adobe Creative Suite, to web publishing, Drupal,
design, and video. Each course is taught by an industry expert and consists of short videos that can be watched and replayed at any time.<o:p></o:p></div>

<a href="http://lynda.com">lynda.com</a> with the person’s first name, last name, and email – this information establishes the person’s unique
<a href="http://lynda.com">lynda.com</a> profile. Users will not have the option to access
<a href="http://lynda.com">lynda.com</a> anonymously. When you arrive at <a href="http://Lynda.com">
Lynda.com</a>, you will see your name at the head of the Home Page and a My Training menu option. Each user’s training history will be blank at first but will become populated with usage. To see what the Lynda Campus experience is like, you may attend a preview
or take a test drive.<o:p></o:p></div>
