Coursera

Anyone can tell me is there any certification upon completing a free online course from coursera

No. You must pay to receive a certificate. Capstone courses that are not free include a certificate. L3X1 (distænt write) 15:23, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Section on Partners

Hello,
What is the purpose of having a separate section on Partners when an updated list is available on the Coursera website itself?
May I delete this entire section and corresponding references?

For-profit company

Should it be mentioned in the article that this is a for-profit company? 89.161.40.230 (talk) 10:58, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've heard discussion about this, mostly because Coursera calls itself Coursera.org. I think, that because it is mentioned to be a company in the lede and has "business model" int he Table Of Contents, that we are fine. Non-profits are stated as such.
