If we want to learn something, there are plenty number of MOOC platforms that provide awesome courses in various disciplines such as business, arts, computer science, medicine, and a lot more, etc. They help a lot in learning and developing our tech skills, communication skills, etc. Besides this, another advantage is that "They provides us various assignments, live projects, etc to test and analyze our strength on that concept."

I have used various platforms like Edx, Coursera, and many more. But I personally like "COURSERA" Because of its wide variety of courses, but the best thing about it is "FINANCIAL AID" or "SCHOLARSHIP" on their courses. Yes, they provide up to 100% financial aid on some of their courses. If you aren't financially stable, then as a student you can apply for financial aid on the course, you want to do. The benefit of financial aid is "You will receive a Certificate of Completion after you fulfill the criteria for it. Ex:- Passing score in assignments, working live projects, etc" These certificates shows your hard work and dedication during the entire course. Also, these certificates are provided by Highly reputed organizations/Universities, etc. Hence they add up value to your resume too.

Here, you can see the "FINANCIAL AID AVAILABLE" option under the course that you want to do, if they are providing it. Click on it, after that, you will see a page saying "IT MIGHT TAKE 15 DAYS FOR THE APPLICATION TO GET REVIEWED". proceed with it.
