A certificate of completion is available for those who meet all of the course requirements, and pay online an administrative fee of $30 (thirty U.S. dollars), using a credit card.

Course Requirements for Certificate of Completion

To be eligible for the certificate of completion, you must:

  • Listen to the weekly video classes and read the weekly readings.
  • Complete weekly quizzes with a minimum score of 70%. (You can retake the quizzes as many times needed. Only the highest score will be recorded.)
  • Create OR reply to at least one discussion forum each week. 

Pay for the Certificate

After confirmation of course requirements, the Knight Center will send a message with confirmation that you fulfilled the course requirements and qualify for the certificate. In this message we will also send you instructions on how to make payment.

Download the certificate

Once you have paid for the certificate, it will take three to five  business days to process your payment. Once your payment has been confirmed you will receive an email with instructions on how to download the certificate. The Knight Center does not send certificates. You are responsible for downloading the certificate once your payment has been processed.

No formal course credit of any kind is associated with the certificate. The certificate is awarded by the Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas to attest to the participation in the online course.
