You have two options for purchasing one of our program credentials: as a bundled purchase, or upgrading each course one by one. If you have questions about payment methods we accept, please read How can I pay?
- Option 1: Purchase the program bundle
- Option 2: Upgrade course by course
- Receiving the program certificate
- Do I have to complete all the available courses right now?
Whether you purchase the program as a bundle or upgrade its courses one by one, upon completion you'll earn the same program credential.
Option 1: Purchase the program bundle
Most programs offer a one-click bundle purchase to add all the program courses at once. If this is available, you can scroll down and click the Pursue the Program button on the program introduction page.
- Lets you purchase all the courses at once for the discount indicated on the program page
- Lets you select the course session that best fits your schedule
Please read How to select course sessions for detailed information on selecting course sessions and completing a program with this option.
Please note that enrollment coupon codes and Financial Assistance coupon codes cannot be applied to program bundle purchases.
If this Pursue the Program button is not available on a program's page, then bundling is not an option for that particular program.
Option 2: Upgrade Course by Course
You can also purchase the program courses one by one.
- Pay as you go in the program
- Optionally start for free and upgrade later
- Lets qualifying applicants apply Financial Assistance coupons to eligible programs
To do this from the program introduction page, scroll down to Courses in this Program. Click on the title of one of the courses listed to expand it. Click View the course to view the course introduction page. There, you can click the Enroll button to enroll in that course.
You can Upgrade to the verified track at the time you enroll in the course, or you can start for free and upgrade to the verified track later so long as the upgrade deadline for the course has not passed.
Receiving the program credential
After you’ve earned a verified certificate from each course in the program, you’ll automatically receive the program credential at no further cost. (Where can I find my program certificate?)
Whether you purchase the program as a bundle or upgrade its courses one by one, upon completion you'll earn the same program credential.
Do I have to complete all the available courses right now?
You do not need to complete all of the courses at once in order to earn the program credential. The courses will be re-offered on an ongoing basis, and all certificates count towards the program credential.
