Make yourself more recognizable with your Coursera Certificate LinkedIn profile

Coursera Certificates

I think a well-crafted online course that helps people is the ultimate destination for an online business.

Like ebooks, it’s one of those business models where once you’ve created the course and uploaded it to an educational platform, you don’t have to do much more than that.

Of course, there are a lot of packaged products out there, like personal coaching and things like that, but having created an online course can be a huge asset for someone with an online business.

In that sense, I think Coursera’s platform goes above and beyond, and I think it’s great that they’re offering online courses that people need in their industry, even if they’re not taking a formal course.

I think they’ve really tapped into a need in this day and age where there’s a lot of interest in self-development, and I’m currently taking a course on Google data analytics on Coursera.

If you are interested in studying data analytics, you can check out my previous post about how the course is organized.

I chose the Coursera platform because I didn’t major in data analytics in college, but it’s something I’m interested in and I’m thinking about changing my career path in the future.

What made me choose Coursera was the certificate you receive after completing the course and the fact that it can be shared directly on your LinkedIn profile.

In this article, I’ll tell you how to share your Coursera certificate on your LinkedIn profile.
