This isn't a new offering, but awareness is always a good thing. There are more classes available than are listed in the op - a total of 151. Here's a direct link to all of Harvard's free courses:

https://pll.harvard.edu/catalog/free?page=1

If you've ever heard of auditing a class - that's exactly what this is. You get the knowledge, but you don't take tests or get actual credit. It's like sitting in the classroom as an observer, but the advantage of it being online is that the courses are self-paced. You do have to pay, IF you want a certificate verifying that you took the class.

Many colleges and universities offer similar programs. Googling "free Harvard courses" brought up the link above. Substitute "Harvard" with the name of the school you're interested in to see if they offer a similar program.

honestly... I have no desire to claim to be harvard trained... but some of the courses actually sound really interesting... and I would hope... are more credible than a well made youtube video.

Aren't these always free? You have to pay for assessments and certificates, but I think you could always take these.

If it's free to take the class (no certificate), why does it say loose access barely a month after the class start?

My oldest took intro to CS, high quality free course IMO, good for a high schooler to get going early.
