History[edit]
LinkedIn Learning was founded as Lynda.com in 1995 in Ojai, California, as online support for the books and classes of Lynda Weinman, a special effects animator and multimedia professor who founded a digital arts school with her husband, artist Bruce Heavin.[3]
In 2002, the company began offering courses online.[4] By 2004, there were 100 courses, and in 2008, the company began producing and publishing documentaries on creative leaders, artists, and entrepreneurs.[5]
In 2013, Lynda.com received its first outside investment, raising $103 million in growth equity from Accel Partners and Spectrum Equity, with additional contributions from Meritech Capital Partners.[6] On January 14, 2015, Lynda.com announced it had raised $186 million in financing, led by investment group TPG Capital.[7]
On April 9, 2015, LinkedIn announced its intention to buy Lynda.com in a deal valued at $1.5 billion, which officially closed on May 14, 2015.[8] The site re-branded to 'Lynda.com® From LinkedIn'.[9]
In 2016, Lynda.com began to broadcast courses on their Apple TV application.[10]
On June 13, 2016, Microsoft announced that it would acquire Lynda.com's parent company LinkedIn for $26.2 billion. The acquisition was completed on December 8, 2016.[11][12][13]
In October 2017, Lynda.com was merged and renamed LinkedIn Learning.[14]
