Free Online Courses with Certificates
- 75 with a free certificate
- 112 with a paid certificate
- 15 providers
A certificate is free when nothing about the course costs money, including the grading. That rules out most Coursera and edX courses, where the material is free but the certificate is not. Both kinds are listed here, in two tables, so the difference is visible before you enrol rather than at checkout.
