Anywhere to Access Free Online Courses?

Can someone recommend websites hosting free online courses? A friend teased me about using a torrent application, and that comment sparked my search for platforms offering no-cost courses.

I’ve found that platforms like Saylor Academy and Alison offer a range of free online courses that are often overlooked. My personal experience shows that the quality and depth of these courses can vary, but they provide a solid starting point for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge without financial commitment. I also noticed that while some courses come with extra support materials, others require a bit more self-discipline to navigate. It’s worth giving them a try, as they can complement resources from more well-known platforms.

Hey Nate! I remember stumbling on some cool spots like MIT OpenCourseWare and Khan Academy a while back – seriously, they’re like hidden gold mines for free learning. I personally dig the mix of interactive content and deep dives into subjects on Khan, but I’m curious – are you looking for something more academic, or are you thinking about more practical skills like tech tutorials? I’ve also heard a bit about other platforms that let you earn certificates without spending a dime, and it could be fun to explore different corners of free education out there. Which subjects catch your eye the most? I’m always excited about new areas to learn, so let’s chat more about what might work best for you! :blush:

hey nate, check edx & coursera’s audit options—also freecodecamp for coding aspects. been using them and they offer legit free courses. hope it helps, buddy!

Hey Nate! I recently discovered OpenLearn by the Open University and got really intrigued by their approach—it’s awesome because it mixes more traditional academic content with a learner-friendly style. I’ve also noticed there’s some really cool channels on YouTube where professors and experts post full lectures on various subjects, which sort of gives you the free college experience without the campus. It makes you wonder, what kind of learning vibe really clicks with you? Are you into more structured courses, or do you prefer learning bits here and there from different sources? I’d love to hear what subjects you’re most excited about diving into and maybe we can swap some hidden gem recommendations along the way! :blush:

hey nate, you might check out codeacdemy’s free courses and some univ sites with open lectures. it’s pretty chill if u want a quick, no-fuss start in a subject. hope it helps, man!
