πŸ’° Affiliate Disclosure

This is the most important section to read.

SkillsToPivot participates in affiliate programs. This means that when you click a link to a course or certificate on this site and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

We are affiliates of or may earn commissions from:

  • Coursera β€” through the Coursera Affiliate Program
  • Udemy β€” through the Udemy Affiliate Program via Impact.com
  • LinkedIn Learning β€” through the LinkedIn Affiliate Program
  • Other online learning platforms β€” where relevant affiliate programs exist

πŸ“Œ Our editorial independence guarantee:

Affiliate relationships do not influence our recommendations, rankings or reviews. We recommend courses based on quality, employer recognition and Australian job market relevance β€” not commission rates. We include affiliate links as a way to fund the site, not to push you toward specific products.

Wherever an affiliate link is used, it is either labelled or is identifiable by its destination URL. You can always visit course platforms directly without going through our links β€” your choice makes no difference to our editorial independence.

This disclosure complies with the ACCC's guidelines on affiliate marketing transparency and the FTC's requirements for disclosure of material connections.
