Locating A Free Self Development Course

By Jerry Stevens


Whether living life to the fullest or looking for ways to create a better life, there are a number of free online courses which can often be of assistance. In fact, there are more than ten free offerings when it comes to finding a great self development course online. As such, whether looking to enhance an already amazing life or learning about different subjects, these classes often have something to offer.

Some providers will also provide courses for free on a limited basis. It should be noted that when individuals are providing free courses, most also have a number materials associated with the subject available for sale. As such, it is important to locate a course in which the provider is serious about teaching and not only selling various products and services.

Beyond independent individuals offering such classes, online educational programs such as Coursera, edX and Saylor Academy and others are offering free courses with some having certificates available for a small donation to the sponsoring school or University. While edX originally provide Honor Certificates from the sponsoring school for completing coursework. While this is the case, it now appears the Verified Certificate which can be acquired with a donation to the sponsoring University and completing all required work remains the only option.

In most cases, colleges and universities offering courses through these sites have a wide variety of course offerings. In most cases, courses are the same as those provided on-campus and sometimes students attend lectures through online video networks either live or on a pre-recorded basis. As such, individuals can learn and grow a great deal by completing any one of these online courses provided by worldwide colleges and universities.

When it comes to independent courses, these are often provided through a number of different videos and downloadable workbooks. Depending on the provider, individuals may or may not have to complete and return assignments. Whereas, while some provide certificates upon completion, others do not.

It should be noted that there are other methods in which an individual can enhance an already amazing life or better life for the future. In some cases, this can include attending a conference offering different areas of interest, a local workshop or going to a health fair which offers a number of workshops related to body, mind and soul.

In most cases, self development refers to bettering oneself in body, mind and spirit. As such, getting out and exploring new and different opportunities can also provide a great deal of development in this area. For, the more an individual gets out into the world, often the more one learns about oneself and others.

Ultimately, motivation is key in locating a great course which will aid in creating or enhancing life in the future. In fact, simply going to a talk at a local bookstore, joining a book club or attending a library event can often be an entertaining and enlightening experience which can often provide insight and knowledge in different areas. Whereas, if a poet or writer, attending a writer's conference or poetry festival featuring workshops, an open mic or poetry slam can often be entertaining and educational.
