EdX currently offers two types of certificates:
- Verified certificates for single courses
- Program certificates for programs
Note: Not all courses offer certificates, and archived courses do not award certificates.
Verified Certificates
Verified certificates are available for a fee that varies by course. You earn a verified certificate by passing the course with the required grade in the verified track. You must also verify your identity on edX before the verification deadline in the course.
For more information about verified certificates, see the edX Verified Certificates page.
Program Certificates
You earn program certificates when you have earned a verified certificate for each course in the program. edX offers program certificates for MicroMasters™, Professional Certificate, and XSeries programs. For example, here is an XSeries program certificate.
For more information about programs, see the topics in the Programs section.
