Verified certificates
What is a verified certificate?
Sometimes you want to take a course just for the sheer joy of learning something new. But sometimes you need to complete a course for a better job, a promotion, or a college application.
A verified certificate from edX can provide proof for an employer, school, or other institution that you have successfully completed an online course.
- Build skills and your career
- Impress your employer with a verified certificate that documents your learning.
- Challenge yourself
- Sometimes we all need that extra push. Working towards a certificate keeps you motivated.
- Share it with the world
- Share your verified certificate with others securely through a dedicated link that we provide.
