Hey everyone! I have been busy and currently overseas, didn't have much time for deals. Here is a FREEBIE!! deal that usually is $605.

Coursera Plus is an online training platform that offers more than 7,000 courses on various subjects, as well as preparation for certifications. Coursera is also the only place where you can do Google, Meta, AWS, Microsoft specialisations and also has a lot of University affiliations.

This subscription usually costs around AU$605 for the year - however when accessing the deal link as a new user via Mexico VPN, it is completely free as part of a promotion.

Note: You only require VPN for the sign-up / payment process - once completed, disconnect and access the subscription / courses as normal without VPN.

(Don't forget to cancel your subscription to avoid a charge in one years time).

Instructions:

1 - Connect to VPN via Mexico

2 - Access the following link (use incognito mode for better results): https://www.coursera.org/courseraplus/special/newcoursepromo

3 - Subscribe for one year. (Enter your payment details/information).

4 - Deactivate VPN and access paid courses as normal for one year.

Note: You can cancel immediately and keep the whole years access (Go to Manage Subscriptions, click the subscription you want to cancel, then click cancel subscription).

Coursera Plus is a subscription service that gives users unlimited access to over 7,000 courses, specializations, and professional certificates. It includes content from top universities and companies, such as Google, IBM, and Duke University.

What’s included in Coursera Plus
It gives you access to 7,000+ courses and specializations (which are a collection of courses that lead to a certificate) with one monthly or annual subscription.

Over 90% of the courses on the platform are available with the Plus subscription.

You have unlimited access to the training from 170+ leading companies and universities. And you can earn certificates for all of them (there might be a few that don’t offer certificates).

There are more than 15 Professional Certificate programs (including all the courses from Google) available too, but degrees and some other classes are excluded from the subscription plans.

Benefits of Coursera Plus:
Unlimited access: Users can take as many courses as they want without paying extra.
Flexible learning: Users can create a learning schedule that fits their lifestyle.
Earn certificates: Users can earn valid certificates for all their professional and specialization programs.
Career support: Coursera Plus can help users improve their skills and advance their careers

        I think Revolut provides a disposable card… could be helpful for trials like this

        • ninohax on 29/09/2024 - 16:27

          Just tried and didn't work, Seems Coursera doesn't accept disposable cards

            @ninohax: I tried my Bano card and it worked

            Regardless, use your standard bank card or PayPal even, it’ll work.
            Just make sure to cancel your subscription right after.

              @Gervais fanboy: Pardon my ignorance but what is a Bano Card? Is it something similar to Revolut?

          • txb on 29/09/2024 - 17:01

            @ninohax: Revolut worked for me

          • bio on 29/09/2024 - 17:02
            +6

            @ninohax: Revolut works. Just generate a virtual (not disposable) card. You can delete virtual cards too. They just don't disappear automatically.

        • tabboy on 29/09/2024 - 16:52

          I use Wise disposable card, works fine.

        • kdmeir on 29/09/2024 - 19:37

          Revolut has gone downhill. The disposable card doesn’t work anywhere. Their virtual card does but you are only allowed to create 3 to 4 virtual cards a month. Zip is a good alternative but they don’t let you delete their disposable cards. They auto delete after being used. Wise is good, lets you delete the card 3 to 4 times a day. I’ll give Bano a try.

          • Maxdax on 29/09/2024 - 21:28

            @kdmeir: just used a Zip one time virtual card and it worked

    It's a shame the DeepLearning.ai courses are not part of Coursera Plus. Which is funny cause Andrew Ng is the co-founder of DeepLearning.ai as well lol

        I'm looking at the Mathematics for Machine Learning Specialization offered by ICL. I'm hoping these courses give me enough background to understand the theory when I do deeplearning.ai courses.

    What IT course is the most useful for both resume and practicality?

    • thecloudking on 29/09/2024 - 15:38
      +4

      None of these are relevant for a resume

    • WSDtightwad on 29/09/2024 - 17:27

      Anything excel based. There is excel data analysis courses there that would apply to a whole bunch of job types and learning pathways.
      Anything python based if you want to get more into the data science weeds.
      Apart from that, whatever tickles your fancy.

      But these will only come with coursera certificates…. not proper degrees from the originating uni's. So they won't stand up as well on a resume as real uni quals. But they can be used to show you have an interest, and you can learn as much as you want.

      • serpserpserp on 29/09/2024 - 18:01

        There is excel data analysis

        I did some udemy ones from years back from a free OZB deal years ago it was pretty good.

              @txb: Make sure you contact them to be 100% sure you don't get charged since you technically didn't cancel the subscription (only the account).

              I had the same issues, the link in the welcome email worked to take me to my subscriptions

          Should be under subscriptions.

          But the page design is terrible. Subscriptions and purchases are actually sections you click on and then it'll expand. But it doesn't look like it. Took me ages.. But try clicking on subscriptions and the section should expand

        • User76 on 30/09/2024 - 11:51

          I just did this and noticed it takes a while to appear. So just leave it a few minutes.. i actually logged out, and back in, and about 10 minutes later it appeared and I could cancel the subscription.
