Harvard University

Education is one of the most important things our children can get and in this period, it can be hard to attain it. Fortunately, there are many free sources of education online and now even Harvard University is offering over 50 free online courses.

The courses are mainly suited for recent form four leavers and anyone else looking to learn something or upgrade what they already know. They have different time periods ranging from 4-12 weeks of leaning. The courses will also require about 6-9 hours per week.

The instructors are all from the University of Harvard. However, for a verified certificate, you will have to pay KES 14,000. This shouldn’t be a barrier because you’ll still have the information and how you use it will lie on your decisions.
