    There are other courses offered. It is worth visiting their website.
  • Do you have to pay for the certificate though?

    From there t&c's:
    1. How much does it cost to take the course?
      Nothing: it's free!
    2. Will I get a statement of accomplishment after completing this class?Yes. Students who successfully complete the class will receive a statement of accomplishment signed by the instructor
    Doesnt actually say that the statement of accomplishment is free, just the course. So could be worth emailing/calling them to clarify.
