    The course was quite short and good. I just completed this course. Once upon time i had tried paid promotion of linkedin but it’s costly so couldn’t continue it. Today I found it again from classcentral said that free course with free certificate but after completion no certificate available as said. Please don’t make us fool or cheat.
