The first thing that sets edX apart from other similar e-learning platforms is that it is a non-profit and open-source organization. It provides students with a large number of study options and a broad range of available courses from various subjects. While online courses are the most popular types of learning tools used on edX, they are certainly not all that the service has in their arsenal. All students can pick a course for free and access the video materials, lectures, and discussion boards at no cost. These kinds of free learning materials are an excellent way of being taught topics by some of the world's best universities such as Harvard and MIT. All Verified Track students who graduate their course on edX get a certificate of completion from the institution which created the course. Courses are definitely worth taking, as they offer excellent value for students. Almost all of the online courses on edX can be accessed for free, and they are created by some of the world's best universities. Paying for a course is worth it for you, depending on what you are looking to get out of the online course you are taking. All master's degrees take place fully online, and anywhere from 1-4 years to complete on average. To see the full list of all available courses and upcoming online degrees offered on edX, tap the image in several of Bentley's LinkedIn edX posts and a button will soon be available on Knobull homepage. Bentley concluded, "If there's one single thing that edX gets right, it's their pricing. Not only are most courses free to audit, but those which do come with a cost tend to be very affordable. Compared to on site Colleges and the other online learning platforms, edX offers great value for your money." End
