Frequently asked questions

Reinforcement in training refers to the process of encouraging desired behaviors through rewards or penalties, guiding the learning process.

The main purpose is to enable an agent to learn optimal behavior by interacting with an environment and receiving feedback in the form of rewards.

The four key components are: the agent, the environment, actions, and rewards.

The main focus is to train agents to make decisions that maximize cumulative rewards over time through trial and error.

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
