Starting is free: lessons only need a free account, no card. You pay only for what you choose to add: a career pathway (one-time enrollment), a certificate (free for beginner courses, $12 intermediate, $18 advanced), or a $9/month plan for more AI tutor help. Learners in Haiti get 85% off everything with the EdLight Haiti Scholarship. Full prices are on the Pricing page.
Each certificate has a unique public verification URL that anyone, including employers and HR teams, can use to confirm its authenticity in seconds. You can also add it to your LinkedIn profile with one click directly from your certificate page.
Most tracks take 4–8 hours of focused learning, which you can spread over a few days or complete in a weekend. There are no deadlines: you learn entirely at your own pace, and your progress is saved automatically.
EdLight Code is available in English, French, and Haitian Creole. You can switch languages at any time from the navigation bar. Your preference is saved automatically across all your sessions.
No experience required. Our beginner tracks start from absolute basics and build up step by step. If you know how to use a browser, you're ready to start. A short quiz during sign-up also helps match you to the right starting point.
