Lynda.com FAQs

Is there a limit to how many topics I can learn about on Lynda.com?

No. Learning on Lynda.com is unlimited. As long as your username and password are valid, you may access any of the Lynda.com tutorials. You can even learn multiple topics concurrently.

Yes.

The length of validity for your username and password depends upon the course of study you've chosen when requesting access via the HelpDesk. Naturally, larger topics will require longer periods of access. We also understand that sometimes you get distracted and will need to request an extension. If this is the case - or if you are having trouble logging in, contact the HelpDesk at 410-778-7777.

By default, Lynda.com is accessible for three days per access request. At times, we may not be able to process requests for extensions due to high training demand.
