Questions

What does it cost?

Nothing. The course and the certificate are free, and so is verifying it.

Can an employer check it?

Yes. Every certificate has its own page, and the code printed on it resolves there without anyone needing an account.

Do I need any experience?

No. These are written for students and people in their first job, and they assume nothing.

What do I actually walk away with?

The certificate, and the piece of work you made for the project. That goes into your insiderOne profile as a proof item, private until you choose to show it.

Know someone studying this?

The course and the certificate are free, and anyone they send it to can check it.
