The Macquarie University Library holds a subscription to LinkedIn Learning, a collection of thousands of "how to" video courses on all sorts of skills, many of which are useful for research candidates.

Each course is composed of several short (typically 3 to 8 minute) video tutorials, and is self paced, so you can schedule the tutorials around your research and teaching commitments.
