The University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) offers online courses through edX, an online learning platform. These courses cover topics such as nursing, public health, mental health, and scientific discovery. They offer professionals, students, and lifelong learners opportunities to explore subjects, build knowledge, and develop skills.

How the Courses Work

  • Audit Courses for Free

    You can audit eligible courses on edX at no cost. Auditing provides access to course learning materials, subject to the course's terms and access limits. It does not include a verified certificate or access to all graded assignments.

  • Earn a Certificate or Continuing-Education Credit

    To earn a verified certificate or receive professional continuing-education credit, you may need to pay a fee to enroll. Fees, eligibility, and requirements vary by course.

    A verified edX certificate does not automatically qualify as continuing-education credit for a professional license.

NOTE: Before enrolling, review the individual course details to confirm the available options, costs, and any continuing-education credits offered.
