Compare credentials

Side-by-side comparison of major AI credentialing programs across cost, duration, prerequisites, format, level, and recognition.

Use this tool to compare AI credentialing programs across the axes Edge Curriculum tracks in our reporting: cost band, duration, prerequisites, recognition pattern, format, level, and bucket (university, vendor, project-first).

By default the tool selects the four programs most frequently asked about in reader correspondence: Harvard Extension AI tracks, Google Cloud Skills Boost, MIT Professional Education AI, and DeepLearning.AI’s Deep Learning Specialization. Tick or untick programs in the control panel below to swap programs in and out.

Caveats. Pricing and duration columns reflect ranges, not precise figures. Specific course titles within a credentialing family change frequently; we describe the family rather than the rotating titles. For program-by-program detail, follow the link in each column header to the relevant reference page or external program landing page.
