Learning Platform Review

When I talk about platforms, I am talking about the ways that the site teaches you, like video tutorials, interactive projects and hands-on testing, as well as awarding certificates. I really like the Coursera platform, but not as much as the learning experience provided by Oxbridge. I do think both platforms are great ways to learn, but I found Oxbridge better suited towards teaching me effectively.

User Experience Review

When we review the platform, we are looking at the learning angles of the experience, but for the User Experience Review we look at everything else, including the sign-up process, the wait-times, the quality of courses, support, emails, billing and more. While Coursera is a great experience from an end-user prospective Oxbridge has the superior user experience overall. We recommend both services, but feel like Oxbridge has the edge in this category.
