American Dream Alumni Academy? - acethroughcollege - 04-11-2023
Did anyone else get an invitation from Coursera to join the American dream alumni academy?
Apparently, it makes almost all of the Coursera courses free if you have completed at least one career cert in the past.

Just got the invite too. It seems that many more professional certificates are available now, like the Intuit Bookkeeping course that I was interested in.

Yup. I was going to post about it earlier.
Looks like the value of doing TADA has just increased exponentially. Especially since it's free.

Oh wow! I guess I better get cracking on those

I know many international students or those not in the US will have questions... How does this compare to the yearly Coursera subscription? Are the Amazon or IBM certs included? I missed the memo (didn't get the email, yet, maybe in my spam folder). Most people are interested in the ones with ACE credit and/or those from the FAANG companies...

I am not sure if anyone of you have seen this but TADA initiated an alumni program which granted access to all Coursera courses!
After registering I finished some of the courses, for instance, Intro to Psycho by Yale, and get the certificate free of charge.
Check your mail and join the alumni guys~

I registered for TADA on Coursera about 9 or 10 months ago, but have yet to complete any of the certificates. So I'm well past what I thought was a 6-month cutoff point for the program. So I haven't received the notification mentioned here, but I did look at my account and I now suddenly have access to many more of the certificate courses. I registered for several of them, and didn't receive any sort of "no soup for you!" warning about doing so.
Is it possible that the TADA partnership is now just becoming all you can eat, no time limit? If so, that would be pretty awesome for those of us that are really just here for lifelong learning.

Same here. I just added on the Social Media Marketing one that I started when I had Coursera Plus. Hoping that will be the fastest for me to finish.

Just wondering, did they also include things not normally available through Coursera Plus? Example: Certificates from IBM and/or https://www.coursera.org/deeplearning-ai
