How to complete a Coursera certification if your course only includes part of the certification

To complete a Coursera certification when your course only includes part of the certification, follow these steps:

Check Your Progress

Log into your Coursera account:

  • Click on the Specialization or Certificate program.

Enroll in the Remaining Courses

If your current enrollment or sponsorship only covered one part:

  • Finish all video lessons, readings, quizzes, and assignments.
  • Pass all graded assessments.
  • Submit any peer-reviewed or final projects if required.
