In the beginning, you might find that students are putting effort into schoolwork just to get the certificate but they will realize that their effort will help them succeed in school, and eventually the motivation will come from within with no award certificates and prizes. Even if a child continuously keeps studying just to receive recognition, it might be better than a child who isn’t motivated at all. The reason for studying might not be to succeed in school, but the outcome will be the same as a child who has studied because of some inner drive to succeed.

It is important to reward not only those who need a little help with their motivation but also those who are motivated and excelling. Often, teachers take those students for granted and pay more attention to those who lack motivation. Award certificate templates can help keep those students motivated as well.

All school certificates are free!

You can prepare and customize many kinds of printable certificates on this site. The award certificate templates above are more specific but if you cannot find one that is appropriate you might want to check out our generic templates which you might be able to adapt to your needs.

When your certificate is ready you can print it or just download it if you prefer to make virtual certificates for students.

Be creative and try to recognize any effort that students make even if they do not get straight A’s.

Custom Award Templates

Customize awards templates.

If you're using a classroom awards template for your students as an assignment, simply copy the printable student award worksheet to your account and save. When creating the assignment, just select it as a template!

Award Templates for Students

Teachers work hard to establish inclusive classroom communities where their students feel supported, seen and heard. Learning involves risk-taking and students are better prepared to take risks, challenge themselves, grow and learn in an environment that is supportive and nurturing. Creating this type of setting takes dedication and is evident in practically everything that teachers do! From getting to know their students on a personal level, supporting their individual learning styles, setting ground rules and boundaries, providing feedback and encouragement, teachers are constantly working to establish and maintain a classroom environment that supports students both academically and emotionally.

One way to help with this endeavor is to make a habit of acknowledging students' progress. Everyone needs to feel appreciated and valued. Student award certificates are one way to achieve this! These awards templates can be customized to be beautiful acknowledgements of any superlative or achievement. Classroom awards for students might be in the form of prizes, privileges, or certificates. These printable awards for students can be easily customized and displayed digitally or printed. Teachers love to acknowledge students' hard work and students love to feel seen and appreciated!

Psst! These awards templates don't have to be just for students! They can easily be customized and used for teachers, administrators, support staff, cafeteria staff, custodians, parent helpers and anyone in the school or classroom that deserves recognition!

Custom Student Awards

Why are they important and how are they best used.

Greatness deserves to be recognized, that is why creating a superlative certificate template is an excellent idea!

Present an award certificate to a student, classroom or teacher who deserves recognition for something they have done or progress made. Many teachers like to present superlatives at the end of the term, mid year or end of the year to help motivate students and build a positive classroom community. Each printable class awards template is completely customizable, you can change the colors, design, artwork and add your own text! Storyboard That’s award templates for students are so easy (and fun!) to create and use.

There are so many ways to use these templates. Typically, students are given awards for achieving high marks on their report cards. Often awards are given out at the end of the year during graduation or a final assembly. These awards are perfect for that! However, the fun doesn't have to stop there! There are so many ways to acknowledge students' growth throughout the school year. Celebrating everyday victories and progress over time is so important to also acknowledge. Boost your students' confidence and encourage a community of learners!

Students of all ages do their best when they can feel proud of their accomplishments and their hard work, unique strengths and individual talents are acknowledged! These awards will lift their spirits and encourage others to take risks and try their best as well! Show your students how much you care by creating a printable awards certificate today!

Print these award certificates and present them in person. You can even laminate them for longevity. These can also be downloaded and presented digitally, sent in an email or posted to your school's social media.Your students will be excited to see their name in bold fancy lettering on the award and be able to display it for their friends, families and caregivers.

To create an award certificate, choose a superlatives awards template above! Once you're in the Storyboard Creator, click on each of the elements on the student award template to change them to fit your needs. When you're done, hit "Save & Exit"! You can print your superlative awards for students right away, or keep them in your storyboard library until you are ready to use them.

[2024] 1700 Coursera Courses Still Completely Free

Did you know Coursera has many courses that are still completely free? Class Central has the complete list.

Is Coursera Free?

At Class Central , we get that question so often that I wrote a guide to answer it . Nowadays, most Coursera courses are free to audit. But if you want to complete graded assignments or get a course certificate, you have to pay.

Coursera’s entire catalog used to be entirely free. But in late 2015, they introduced a paywall . Over the following years, this monetization approach expanded to other online course providers, including edX .

But I always knew that there were a few courses on Coursera that remained completely free. When you enroll in these courses, they offer a “ Full Course, No Certificate ” option, as you can see above.

Which Courses are Entirely Free?

Out of Coursera’s 7000 or so active courses, I expected to find about 50 fully-free courses. Imagine my surprise (shock, really) when I found that close to 1700 Coursera courses are still completely free

The biggest challenge is finding which Coursera courses are entirely free. The Coursera website doesn’t provide any “free course” filter ( Class Central does though 😊). To know if a course is fully free, you have to log into Coursera, enroll in the course, and look for the “ Full Course, No Certificate ” option.

But there are thousands of courses on Coursera, so short of checking them one by one, it’s tricky to manually put together a list of their fully-free courses. So instead, we went with an automated approach.

Originally, I used the browser automation tool Selenium to check the courses for me. My colleague Bob set me up with an AWS instance and Cloud9 IDE , where I could do this automation. Below is a screenshot of the setup. (Yes, I prefer PHP.)

Out of Coursera’s 7000 or so active courses, I expected to find about 50 fully-free courses. Imagine my surprise (shock, really) when I found that close to 1700 Coursera courses are still completely free (that is, including the graded assignments, minus only the free certificate).

Free Coursera Courses

Below, I’ve compiled the 1700 entirely free courses offered on Coursera. It includes a number of highly-rated courses, including a few from Class Central’s Best Online Courses of All Time , such as Barbara Oakley’s Learning How to Learn .

Here are some stats about the course list:

• Combined, these courses have 76M enrollments.
• Combined, they have received 41K reviews on Class Central.
• There are 9 courses with over 1M enrollments.
• The most popular one, Yale’s Science of Well-Being , has 4.3M enrollments.
• 58% of the courses are in English and 14% are in Spanish.

To help you navigate the course list, I’ve broken it down by subject. Click on one to jump to the corresponding courses.

moa 2/14/2020 at 7:06am

Thank you so much, very helpful. Last time I checked out Coursera it was still for free (except for the certificates). 🙂

Pambili 3/2/2020 at 8:02am

Thank you for such a comprehensive breakdown. It’s not always easy to see what is on the platform because we always go looking for something specific.

Athina T. 3/2/2020 at 1:27pm

Amazing work.!

ChenWoon 3/2/2020 at 4:48pm

Wonderful!!

Kombe malombola 3/3/2020 at 1:06am

Dhawal, Firstly I would like to thank you so much for your tireless efforts to teach us the masses, then secondly I would like free online course on contract law

We do have following free online courses on contract law: 1. https://www.classcentral.com/course/contracts-1-12714 2. https://www.classcentral.com/course/contracts-2-12715

Mrs. McDonell 3/3/2020 at 4:14am

Thank you for compiling this information. Is there any way to determine courses are from a Secular vs Christian institution ?

Ryan 3/9/2020 at 4:40am

Thank you! Is it possible to have a similar list for edX as well?

Lionel 3/30/2020 at 12:56pm

Best thing I have ever read

annissa maulina 4/5/2020 at 8:57am

This is really helpful, based on this tip i’m preparing a resource list for my team in our museum. Due to the pandemic most of our budget are being slashed heavily. Thankyou so much 🙂

Mahlenk 4/6/2020 at 12:11pm

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You. I found so many courses I didn’t know I was looking for. Excited to get started.

Tiffany 4/19/2020 at 6:42pm

Hello, How long will you continue to have free courses? Thanks!

Amanda 4/23/2020 at 1:11pm

Is there a limit with how many courses you can enroll in with a free certificate? I signed up for two and want to enroll in another but the site isn’t displaying the promotion at the top of the screen as per your GIFs instructions. Thanks

Veron 5/14/2020 at 5:29pm

Hii! I have a question. Can you enroll different courses at the same time? I mean courses with free lessons and free certificate. And in some courses that I’d tried to enroll, when I click to purchase course, says that I have to write my bank account so its not free, that’s not checkout option… Looking forward to hearing from you!

Akshita Agarkar 5/15/2020 at 12:08pm

Wow, I’m just so impressed by your article. Thank you for putting everything in one place. It is helpful, amazing, and informative. Thank You again!

Paulin 6/15/2020 at 10:03am

Hi, I’m finishing Brand Management: Aligning Business, Brand and Behaviour MOOC that also mentioned above. Yet, I don’t know how to get free certification, can someone help me? 🙁 Thanks.

Annabel Saldanha 7/2/2020 at 2:27am

Very impressive and informative article Dhawal! Would you be able to provide an update for July 2020?

Viviana Emile 7/16/2020 at 5:51pm

This list was so effective and convenient . Thank you so much for your time. Smart people do exist

Mr. Scrooge 1/16/2021 at 11:03am

Hello, Anynew courses added to this list?

stephanie 1/20/2021 at 6:16am

Thank you so much, but will you add later on more free couses? and also could you add courses for architecture and interior design and their progams (3dsmax, Revit, Sketchup…)

ravi srinivasan 3/3/2021 at 5:25am

Access is one thing, but a complete course experience is another. we need to distinguish between a course like CS50 on Edx, which offers a complete experience for free, vs many courses on Coursera (or lately Edx), that allow access to videos but not much else. The AI for Medicine, for e.g. offers an audit experience, but also hides some course exercises, quizzes etc.

Kj 3/8/2021 at 1:30pm

Everyone of these I’ve tried requires a payment for certificate

Dhawal Shah 3/8/2021 at 11:00pm

As we note in the article, the certificates are paid but all the contents of the course including graded assignments are free. For other Coursera courses, the graded assignments are also behind the certificate paywall.

Fernando Lanas 3/11/2021 at 10:32am

Thank you very much, this was incredibly helpful!!

Xander 4/3/2021 at 2:48pm

Are there still courses with free certificates in April 2021.. like till 30th April 2021. Please can you update the dates, none are with free certificates.

Jesus 5/13/2021 at 3:13pm

Are there free courses still available, can you update this list please. It was so helpful.

Benjamin Parkin 1/3/2022 at 1:25pm

With Coursera it is pretty fair because you can apply for financial aid. The big issue I had is edX does not have this option. If you wait two weeks you can get into a lot of courses. I did this when I was working in a factory and it was great as it enabled me to go back over college courses I had struggled with when I was younger.

Nat Jureczko 1/4/2022 at 6:48am

Actually, from what I’ve heard, getting financial aid from edX for a course isn’t that hard. The downsides are that 1) the aid doesn’t cover the entirety of the certificate price (the maximum amount is 90%), and 2) you can apply for it for no more than 5 courses per year.

And that’s why agree with your take on Coursera. Their FA has helped me a lot too, and besides that, it’s pretty cool they still have so many courses with open assignments freely available. IMO that’s the biggest problem with the route edX has taken, even bigger than the lack of affordable access to certificates.

Often, you might not need the certificate. But if you truly intend to work through the material, a course with locked-up assignments/exams isn’t than much different from watching YT or a good documentary series. Combine that with no subcription model on edX and it’s 1:0 to Coursera, as far as I’m concerned.

ALVIN NADEN 1/13/2022 at 9:44pm

Dear Dhawal,

Your list is awesome! Thank you.

However, every course from your list requires a minimum payment of USD19 – USD 49 for obtaining each institutions certificate. Now, as you are much aware, these are challenging/difficult times and forking out even a mimimum can be really tough 🙁

Therefore, I remember from your previous link https://www.classcentral.com/report/coursera-free-certificates/ you did help us all with really FREE Certificates and I mean really FREE ie. you study and upon completion, you get your prestigious certificates from renowned universities. I was fortunate to find it and achieve many for FREE!

Is there something like this coming soon? Can you please share with all of us ASAP?

I am very sure all of us will like that alot 🙂

Dhawal Shah 1/15/2022 at 2:44pm

Unfortunately I have no information when and if Coursera will offer free certificates again. But if they do, it will be available on the link you shared.

ALVIN NADEN 2/17/2022 at 8:57pm

Featured Review

"I am currently the Director of Accounting in a multi-billion dollar Company. My team and I are responsible for closing the books, consolidation, financial reporting as well as internal management reporting. I became a PRO user because I found AccountingCoach to be helpful in areas when you just need someone to explain in simple accounting terms. This website has helped me in various areas especially with brushing up my skills before onboarding any new team members. Recently my Company changed our health insurance carriers and I needed to understand payroll accounting in a very short amount of time. I immediately utilized AccountingCoach which helped me understand payroll journal entries and the impact they could have on the financials. I am forever grateful for this resource as I know I can easily get an answer and even quiz myself in order to ensure I have a full understanding of accounting concepts. Thank you again for making this resource available at such an affordable rate." - Anila
