Completing a course
After completing a paid course, you won’t have access to the course’s paid content after that payment expires. You’ll retain access to the free version of the course, which includes downloading videos and transcripts.
After completing a free course, you’ll have access to the same course content that you did during the course.

Retake a course
If you need to retake a course, any progress you've made carries over. You can’t reset progress in a course, but some quizzes and assignments will allow you to retake them. We’ll save your highest grade.
If you have an issue with a grade on an assignment you can’t retake, reach out to your instructor to request an override.
