Join the reskilling revolution with LinkedIn Learning’s most popular courses
As the “Great Resignation” slows and the job market settles, professionals are getting more serious about building skills for the present and future. The pandemic accelerated change across industries, and as a result, skills to do a job today have changed even compared to a few years ago. Professionals are responding by learning new skills to future-proof their careers and meet the moment.
About 7.3 million learners watched the most popular LinkedIn Learning courses of the year. The #1 most popular course was Goal Setting: Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) as people and organizations rallied around shared purpose and priorities in the workplace.
Making their first appearance on the list, were more technical courses such as Learning the OWASP Top 10 and Power BI Essential Training. The popularity of these courses indicate that the acquisition of new tech skills is in high demand for professionals.
If you’re not in the market to acquire new tangible skills, you can always refine and build on the more intangible skills. Consider taking courses dedicated to communication like Communicating with Confidence, Interpersonal Communication, or Communication Foundations. These courses will help you develop the communication skills that are essential to improved teamwork and career success.
Become a better leader, for others or just for yourself, by cultivating a growth mindset and building up your skills. By developing durable, broad-range skills in tandem with the categorical skills you need to do your current job well, you will set yourself up for success tomorrow and beyond.
