Hello Aspirant,

At edX, the Verified Certificates are optional for most MOOCs (for a fee) once you complete the course. Your identity will be verified digitally.edX offers additional MicroMasters Credentials. With MicroMasters, some online courses can be credited towards an academic master's degree at certain universities. edX certificates are accredited and recognized by future employers.

Courses done through these websites is good for knowledge sake but in India, there is hardly any value of these certificates. The thing is recruiters don’t really care much where did you learn your stuff from, they are more interested in what you can do with it.

Regards.
