Credential scope
As checked on 15 October 2026, Pro members completing this course can earn a DeepLearning.AI Certificate of Completion. Free users do not receive certificates or accomplishments. Full passing thresholds, academic credit, expiry and renewal are not established. As checked on 15 October 2026, the course labels its three graded assignments as Pro activities. This label does not establish that every practice tool requires Pro. Membership upgrades take effect immediately. After a downgrade, access to all content and eligibility to earn certificates continue until the next billing cycle. Progress on courses already started is saved for 180 days, allowing a later upgrade to finish quizzes or assignments; this is progress retention, not 180 days of continued Pro access. For reviewed exception cases that are eligible, support issues a full refund, typically processed in 5–10 business days depending on the bank. The direct Pro policy retains its seven-day trial and non-refundable post-trial payments, renewals and upgrades, with no partial refund for early cancellation or downgrade. Incorrect charges or billing after cancellation during the trial are reviewed for eligibility. · info.deeplearning.ai / draft-understanding-certificates-and-accomplishments-in-deeplearning.ai-courses
