Earn professional certifications from industry leaders

Attention: Unfortunately, due to low usage numbers, the University has opted not to renew its licensing for Coursera. Please be aware that access through UNR will be available through the end of April 2026. 

The University has partnered with Coursera to provide access to professional training courses and microcredentials from companies such as Google, IBM, Meta and Salesforce for students (including dual-enrollment students), faculty, staff, and alumni.

Please Note: The University does not confer academic credit for the completion of Coursera content offerings. Coursera courses/microcredentials do not count towards degree completion.
