Foundations of Digital Marketing and E-commerce

• Wann erhalte ich Zugang zu den Vorträgen und Aufgaben?

  Der Zugang zu Vorlesungen und Aufgaben hängt von der Art Ihrer Anmeldung ab. Wenn Sie einen Kurs im Gastmodus belegen, können Sie die meisten Kursmaterialien kostenlos einsehen. Um auf benotete Aufgaben zuzugreifen und ein Zertifikat zu erhalten, müssen Sie während oder nach Ihrer Gastphase das Zertifikat erwerben. Wenn Sie die Gastoption nicht sehen:

  • Der Kurs bietet möglicherweise keine Gastoption an. Sie können stattdessen eine kostenlose Testversion ausprobieren oder finanzielle Unterstützung beantragen.

  • Der Kurs kann stattdessen "Vollständiger Kurs ohne Zertifikat" anbieten. Mit dieser Option können Sie alle Kursmaterialien einsehen, die erforderlichen Aufgaben einreichen und eine Endnote erhalten. Dies bedeutet auch, dass Sie kein Zertifikat erwerben können.

• Was bekomme ich, wenn ich dieses Zertifikat abonniere?

  Wenn Sie sich für den Kurs anmelden, erhalten Sie Zugriff auf alle Kurse des Zertifikats und Sie erhalten nach Abschluss aller Arbeiten ein Zertifikat. Ihr elektronisches Zertifikat wird zu Ihrer Seite „Errungenschaften“ hinzugefügt – von dort können Sie Ihr Zertifikat ausdrucken oder es zu Ihrem LinkedIn-Profil hinzufügen. Wenn Sie lediglich den Inhalt des Kurses lesen und anzeigen möchten, können Sie kostenlos als Gast an dem Kurs teilnehmen.
