Getting started

How does CoursesAdvisors rate online courses?

We combine four signals into a single balanced score: verified student reviews from multiple sources, platform-reported ratings weighted by review volume and recency, instructor track record across platforms, and an editorial review performed by a human content team. The full methodology is described on our about page.

Is CoursesAdvisors free to use?

Yes. Browsing courses, reading reviews and consulting instructor profiles is completely free. We fund the platform through affiliate relationships (clearly disclosed) and optional Premium plans for instructors, neither of which influences our rankings.

What learning platforms do you cover?

We cover Udemy, Coursera, edX, Pluralsight, LinkedIn Learning, Skillshare, MasterClass and many more. If there is a platform we do not yet support that you would like us to add, please let us know via the contact page.

For learners

Can I leave a review?

Yes. Signed-in learners who have taken a course can leave a verified review. Reviews are moderated to filter spam and off-topic content. You can also react to other learners' reviews and reply to them.

How do I save courses for later?

Click the heart icon on any course card to add it to your favourites. You need to be signed in for favourites to sync across devices.

I clicked a course link and the platform shows a different price - why?

Learning platforms frequently run promotions that change prices multiple times per day. We display the most recent price we observed; always check the final price on the platform before purchasing.

For instructors

How do I claim an instructor profile?

Visit the claim profile page and follow the verification steps. We cross-check your identity against the public profile you maintain on each learning platform before marking the profile as verified.

What is included in the Premium plan?

Premium instructors get an editorial profile page, aggregated reviews across every platform where they teach, enhanced analytics, and priority support. See the Premium page for the current plans and pricing.

How do I dispute an inaccurate review?

Contact us through the contact page with a link to the review, the course URL and a short explanation. Our editorial team investigates every dispute within a few business days.
