Coursera Linking and MOOC Completion

Separate registration in Coursera is not required; however, learners who wish to begin work early in a public version of a Massive Online Open Course (MOOC) may register for that MOOC ahead of time. Learners will be automatically enrolled in applicable private sections of Coursera MOOCs on soft launch based on their Illinois registration.

Learners must link their Coursera account and Join Illinois on Coursera before the end of their first course (first 8 weeks). Failure to link within the deadline will result in a failing grade. Several emails will be sent to your Illinois email account by both Coursera and Gies Online if your account is unlinked. Email i-support@illinois.edu if you need confirmation of linking or assistance.
