Autodesk | Professional Services | 15300 | $6.1B | United States | Microsoft | Linkedin Learning | Learning and Development | 2018 | n/a | In 2018, Autodesk implemented Linkedin Learning as a core element of its Learning and Development strategy to provide on-demand, cloud-aligned training for technical staff. Autodesk is a global creative software company based in San Rafael, California, and the rollout targeted a broad, geographically dispersed population of engineers, developers and other tech-focused employees during the companys transition to cloud and subscription delivery models. The deployment emphasized modular e-learning capabilities consistent with Learning and Development platforms, including an extensive content library, microlearning segments that break topics into bite-size chunks, exercise files for hands-on practice and embedded coding practice windows to reinforce applied skills. The Linkedin Learning implementation was selected after internal evaluation and employee survey feedback that prioritized breadth of topical coverage, up-to-date instruction on cloud computing and the ability for individuals to self-direct technical skill development. Operational coverage centered on Autodesks technical workforce, which comprises roughly half the company headcount, and the program was positioned to support dispersed teams rather than centralized classroom training. The solution supported role-aligned learning workflows for product engineering and development teams, enabling asynchronous access to training materials across sites and time zones, and aligned with Autodesks move toward cloud-based product offerings. Governance for the initiative was managed by Autodesk Learning and Development, which conducted vendor evaluation and used employee survey input to shape rollout priorities and content curation. Reported product strengths included high quality content, readily accessible exercise files and modular course design, which Autodesk cited as aiding convenient, self-directed learning for technical employees. | |
