Coursera has successfully cleared the hurdle many massive open online course platforms continue to face. The company announced Thursday its Signature Track program has garnered 25,000 signups, earning it $1 million in revenue. Launched in January, Coursera’s Signature Track program gives students the ability to earn a verified certificate for completing one of their online courses. The feature also lets students link their coursework to their identity so they can securely show employers what they have achieved while using the platform. Beyond Signature Track, Coursera has started working with the American Council on Education on credit equivalency, and has also launched a recruiting service to help committed Coursera students connect with employers.
