In this lynda.com review, I will explain why it is worth subscribing.
Lynda.com is one of the best online course providers. We have an annual subscription from lynda.com and we share the subscription with our team to learn different courses. I took ruby on rails course and it was awesome. The course starts with very basic concepts and I was able to learn ruby on rails from scratch. The best part is we could learn from anywhere. Learn while traveling, drinking coffee, etc. You can stop learning when you feel bored and start it again when you feel like learning. You might have a question like, why would I go for paid online training when I can access all the information from the internet for free? The reason is the quality and well-organized course structure. You get trained from experienced software professionals and you can save a lot of time in learning. ” Time is money”

They also provide good exercise materials which would help you understand the concepts while watching the tutorials. Unlike other online course providers, lynda.com allows you to access all their courses with every subscription. So you can get a subscription and share it with your friends and colleagues to get maximum out of the subscription. In this post, I will share a few things which might help you.
