Finishing a course

A course is complete when you have marked every lesson in it complete. A lesson with a required quiz, assignment or discussion can be marked only once that is done. Your last Mark as complete opens the course-complete page.

What's on it

The certificate

If the course gives one, it heads the page, with buttons to add it to LinkedIn and to download it. Click it to open it full screen. See Certificates.

You earned a completion discount

A code for 20% off any course, valid for 30 days. It is kept in My Discounts, in your profile menu.

Your recap

Your level and the course's modules, lessons and length, then the XP to your next level.

Rules and limits

• Finishing earns 2,000 XP, on top of the 100 for each lesson and 500 for each module along the way. Your first finished course also unlocks Course Complete, worth 5,000.
• You get one completion code per course. There is none if you teach the course, or if your enrolment was refunded, left or has run out.
• The 2,000 XP is not paid if you had left the course or it was refunded.
• Finishing does not change your access. Lifetime access stays, and a subscription runs until you cancel it.
• You can go back to any lesson. Un-marking one later does not take away XP, skills or the certificate.
