Registration & Accessing a Course
How do I register for a course offering?
From the main page, select All Classes from the left menu or Browse All Courses to browse our public offerings. Select Add to Cart to register for that course. During the registration process you will be prompted to enter any required registration information for the course. Prior to checkout, enter any relevant discount codes.
Signing up for the course will grant you a 6-month window of access to Coursera, regardless of the proximity to the listed course end date.
For example, a student signing up on December 29th for a course that ends on December 30th will still receive the full 6-month access to the subscription.
