Yes. You can start learning robotics on Coursera for free in two ways:

1. Preview the first module of many robotics courses at no cost. This includes video lessons, readings, graded assignments, and Coursera Coach (where available).
2. Start a 7-day free trial for Specializations or Coursera Plus. This gives you full access to all course content across eligible programs within the timeframe of your trial.

If you want to keep learning, earn a certificate in robotics, or unlock full course access after the preview or trial, you can upgrade or apply for financial aid.‎

Learning robotics involves a structured approach. Start by gaining foundational knowledge through online courses or textbooks. Engage in hands-on projects to apply what you've learned, such as building simple robots or programming simulations. Joining online communities or forums can also provide support and resources. As you progress, consider specializing in areas like AI for robotics or automation systems to deepen your expertise.‎

Robotics courses typically cover a range of topics, including robot design, kinematics, dynamics, control systems, and programming. You may also explore artificial intelligence applications in robotics, sensor integration, and real-world case studies. These subjects provide a comprehensive understanding of how robots operate and interact with their environments.‎

For training and upskilling employees in robotics, courses like the Fundamentals of Robotics & Industrial Automation and the Collaborative Robotics in Industry Specialization are excellent choices. These programs focus on practical applications and industry-relevant skills, making them ideal for workforce development.‎
