Find courses

Where to find courses

• On a computer, click Courses in the menu on the left. You can also open More and choose Courses in the Explore list.
• On a phone, tap Explore (the magnifier) at the bottom, then tap Courses.
• You can also search for a course by name. Open Search, type a word, and choose the Courses tab.

The Courses page opens straight onto the courses. At the top there are two buttons: My learning opens the courses you have joined (see My learning), and Create starts a new course of your own (see Studios). Under them are the tabs and the filters, then the courses.

If you have told Sikhami what you want to learn, a Recommended for you row with courses for those topics shows above the list on the Popular and Newest tabs, while no filter is on. Use Edit next to the row to change your topics. See Your interests.

Course lists and filters

Under the tabs is one row of filters. Category lists every subject (School, Competitive exams, Technology, Languages, Music, Dance and more); search the list or pick one. After you pick a category, Sub-category and then Topic appear, so you can narrow it further. Next to it, the chips Any price, Free and Paid narrow by price. Clear removes all filters. If the filters hide everything, the page says so; choose Show all courses to start again.

On the Face to face tab, tap Set location (or Change) to choose where you are. See Your location.

Without a category, each tab shows up to 20 courses. With a category picked, Popular and Newest list every course in it, 20 at a time: choose Load more courses at the bottom to see the next ones. In Search, the Courses tab also lets you filter by things like mode, level, exam, subject and certificate. See Search filters.

Video courses and face-to-face courses

Some video courses get their lectures from a YouTube playlist. Their card says Video · YouTube. These lectures play inside Sikhami, and these courses are free.

Face-to-face courses are explained in Classroom courses for learners.
