Microsoft Learn
The Microsoft Learning platform offers a new approach to learning that differs from the older Microsoft Virtual Academy (MVA). The old MVA site was primarily built out of recorded training videos organized into learning paths for specific topic areas. The newer Microsoft Learning platform is primarily built out of learning plans made of written content with embedded hands-on labs. This change in content type for Microsoft Learning is a move in the direction towards a more “hands-on” approach to learning, instead of watching videos and demos.
As you complete modules in your training, you can earn badges to document your progress and share on your social media. Microsoft provides all of this online training for FREE! The only time you have to pay for anything, Is only If you choose to take an exam to earn a Microsoft certification.

“By the end of phase three, the goal of myLearning is that the system will meet Airmen for training where they are, whether it’s on a network computer or a tablet in the comfort of their own home, giving them control over the time and place training can occur,” said Rotary Green, AETC myLearning product development program lead.
Currently, users must log in with their Common Access Cards, but officials are working to add two-factor authentication protocols in the coming months. Additional features of myLearning will be announced over the next year as the site continues to build functionality and expand to other learning systems.
The ADLS website became inaccessible to users March 26, 2021 and was replaced with MyLearning March 18, 2021.
