OKR Certification: Leadership and Goal Setting

• When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

  Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:

  • The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.

  • The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

• What will I get if I purchase the Certificate?

  When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.

• What is the refund policy?

  You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.

• Is financial aid available?

  Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

• Is this course affiliated with John Doerr and the book Measure What Matters?

  Yes. This is the only official OKR certification course written in collaboration with John Doerr.

• What are OKRs?

  OKRs stand for Objectives and Key Results, a collaborative goal-setting system used by teams and individuals to set challenging, ambitious goals with measurable results. OKRs are how some of the world’s most successful organizations establish priorities, create alignment, promote engagement, and track progress  around measurable goals.

• Who uses OKRs?

  OKRs are used by leaders, managers, and employees in organizations large and small across the world. Notable organizations with an OKR practice include Google, 23andme, LinkedIn, Airbnb, Walmart, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services within the U.S. government. One common misconception is that OKRs are only for technology companies. In truth, any organization will benefit from the focus, communication, and alignment that OKRs provide.
