• Can I take this Specialization if I’m not a lawyer?

  Absolutely! We’ve designed each course so that it should be straightforward to follow for both lawyers and non-lawyers alike. We start by reviewing the basic legal concepts at a beginner level, before applying them to the cloud. For example, we first discuss what a contract is and how it is formed, before looking at the terms of cloud contracts. For lawyers, this serves as a useful reminder of the underlying principles; while for non-lawyers, it provides a helpful introduction to the fundamentals of the law.

• Can I take this Specialization if I don’t have a technical background in cloud computing?

  Yes, you can! We’ve designed the Specialization so that you don’t need a technical background to understand the content. We begin the first course by covering the basics of cloud computing, including how cloud technologies works and how cloud services differ from traditional, in-house IT. So, we recommend that learners start by reviewing the content in Week 1 “Intro to Cloud Computing” of Course 1 “Cloud Computing Law: Transactions”. Through this week, you’ll learn key concepts like cloud service types, deployment models, and cloud layering, which underpin the legal analysis that follows.

• Do I need to take the Courses in a specific order?

  No, you don’t. We’ve designed the Specialization so that each course – and each week within each course – can be taken on its own. This means you can start with whichever course – or week – sounds most interesting to you. For example, if you are most interested in data protection law, you can go straight to Course 2 “Cloud Computing Law: Data Protection and Cybersecurity”. That said, we recommend that learners start by reviewing the content in Week 1 “Intro to Cloud Computing” of Course 1 “Cloud Computing Law: Transactions”. Through this week, you’ll learn key concepts like cloud service types, deployment models, and cloud layering, which underpin the legal analysis that follows.

• How can I participate in this Specialization?

  The Specialization offers different enrolment options. The three main ways to access the Specialization are listed below.

  (1) Auditing: To view videos and readings for free, audit a course. Go to 1 of the 3 course pages, click ‘Enrol for free’, and select ‘Audit the course’.

  (2) Enrolment: To access all content, including quizzes, enrol in the Specialization for USD $49 or GBP £42 per month, with a 7-day free trial. If you enrol, you can choose to take 1, 2, or all 3 courses for a certificate, in any order you like. You can cancel your subscription at any time. If you cannot afford the enrolment fee, apply to Coursera for financial aid. 

  (3) Coursera Plus: If you have Coursera Plus membership, then you can access the Specialization already!

• How do I access Course content for free?

  If you only want to read and view course content for free, you can audit the three courses in this Specialization for free. To do so, simply go to the course page for the course you are interested in, then click on the 'Enrol for free' button, and select the 'audit the course' option. (You won't be able to take quizzes or obtain a certificate.)

• ¿Cuánto tiempo se necesita para completar un programa especializado?

  That’s largely up to you. We have designed the Specialization so that it consists of 10 weeks of learning, split across three Courses. Each week has between 4 and 6 hours of learner content. So, if you follow this schedule, it would take around 10 weeks to complete, or 2.5 months. Of course, you don’t need to follow our suggested schedule. You can take as much (or as little) time as you like completing the course!

• What is the difference between a Specialization and a Course?

  A course consists of the learning materials that will help you achieve a set of defined learning objectives, such as gaining a new skill. A Specialization is a series of related courses designed to help you master a specific topic. For example, this Specialization in Cloud Computing Law consists of three courses, each of which focuses on different learning objectives. You can take any single course for a Course Certificate, or you can take all three courses to obtain the Specialization Certificate.
