Understand what the Coursera Plus subscription includes, what it excludes and how to check a program before enrolling.
Coursera Plus includes selected courses, Projects, Specializations and Professional Certificate programs. Check the Coursera Plus badge on the specific offering before treating it as included. (Coursera Plus — inclusion FAQ)
Coursera Plus does not include degree programs or MasterTrack Certificate programs; some courses, Specializations and Professional Certificate programs are also excluded. (Coursera Plus — inclusion FAQ)
Starting Coursera Plus does not automatically cancel an existing Coursera Specialization subscription. Review existing subscriptions separately. (Coursera Plus — inclusion FAQ)
Check the actual programs in your plan
Suggested planning exercise: list the specific programs you want to study and look for the inclusion badge on each one. Keep the individual offering and subscription separate; do not assume a provider name or topic guarantees inclusion.
Review your existing enrolments
Compare your current subscriptions with the new offer before starting another one. Keep a record of the provider’s inclusion and billing information for the plan you choose. Use Coursera’s own account and support pages for any change to your subscription.
