Professional development has plateaued during COVID-19, but LinkedIn is giving employees across the U.S. the skills they need to grow and advance at work.

To help professionals learn skills that can lead to a promotion, LinkedIn is offering 15 of their LinkedIn Learning classes for free. These classes will focus on hard technical skills like software development, project management and sales — jobs that are currently in high demand, according to research by LinkedIn and Microsoft.

In this soft skills class, learn strategies that will help you focus on the broader success of the team, including how to manage former peers, initiate difficult conversations, delegate work, talk about money, discuss performance and more.

Get practical advice to help you establish your identity as a leader, connect with your team and become a successful first-time manager.
