FutureLearn

FutureLearn is an online learning platform available on the web, iOS, and Android, with mixed course formats and subscription access. Its Limited Access plan costs nothing and provides limited access to short-course materials, delivered weekly; certificates and test steps are excluded. Unlimited Monthly costs $49.99 a month, and Unlimited Annual costs $349.99 a year. Both paid plans include access to 1400+ short courses, immediate access to course content, and digital certificates for eligible courses. The platform offers business plans, and course certificates are available for eligible courses. The company was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in the United Kingdom. Readers choosing between the listed plans can weigh weekly access to short-course materials at no cost against paid subscriptions that make the course content available immediately and include eligible certificates. Access is available through the website or the mobile apps, so the listed platform options cover desktop web and mobile devices.

FutureLearn suits people looking for short courses on the web or mobile, including learners who want a free, limited-access option. Paid plans may suit learners seeking immediate course access and digital certificates for eligible courses.
