How do I Join?

EdX courses are open to everyone. All you need is access to a computer, an Internet connection and a desire to learn.

To begin, please register for an edX account. You will need to: 

  • Enter your email address
  • Enter your full name (Your full name will appear on any certificates that you earn.)
  • Create a public username for the forums (cannot have spaces) Note: You cannot change your username once it has been created.
  • Create a password
  • Select your country
  • Select Create your account

When you find a course that interests you in the course catalog, you can enroll in the course by selecting the Enroll button on the course About page. 

Registering for an edX account is completely free! You can view courses for free for a limited time, or you can choose to pay a fee to get access to graded assignments and pursue a certificate.
