Progress & Learning History

Goals and progress tracking help you follow guided steps toward a specific outcome, build steady learning habits, and see what you have completed. Sign in before starting if you want your activity connected to your account.

Goals are personalized learning journeys for a specific outcome, such as improving job skills, building confidence, or developing better habits over time. They help organize lessons into a clear path instead of leaving you to choose from the whole library at once.

Use Select a goal from the site navigation. Choose the outcome that matches what you want to improve, then follow the guided steps LearnFree recommends.

First confirm that you are signed in to the same account on the same browser or device. If progress still looks wrong, refresh the page, check your connection, and contact LearnFree with the goal, topic, lesson title, and email address tied to the account.

Sign in and open your profile or account area, then check the progress or certificates section for completed course activity. If you cannot find a quiz score, send support the course name, quiz name, and the email address connected to your account.

Make sure you were signed in when you completed the lessons and quizzes. If you were signed in and the course still does not appear, contact support with the course name, completion date if you know it, and the email address connected to your account.

Finding Topics & Lessons

You can learn practical topics such as Microsoft Office, Google tools, internet basics, computers, job search, AI skills, core skills, creative tools, email, reading, math, and skills for today.

Yes. Use the topic menu or browse the topic library from the home page. If you know the exact skill, look for that tool or outcome first, such as Excel, Gmail, online safety, resume writing, or computer basics.

A topic is a broad area, such as Computers or Microsoft Office. A series groups related learning content inside that topic, such as Internet Basics or Resume Writing. A lesson is the individual page, video, activity, or article you complete.

Yes. You can view one tutorial for a quick task or complete an entire self-paced course. Use the format that matches the skill you need right now.

Visit the Resources page to find additional free online resources for adults. These links are separate from LearnFree's own lessons, so review each outside site before using it.

If a link is missing, broken, or points to content you cannot access, use the Contact Us form and include the exact page URL. This is especially helpful for older links such as iPhone Basics, Android Basics, or Computer-Based Testing resources that may have moved or changed.

Check the current topic library first. If you are looking for older Spanish, Idiomas, or English-language learning content from GCFGlobal and cannot find it, contact support with the course name so the team can confirm whether it moved, changed, or is no longer available.

Software changes over time, so a button, menu, or feature may look different from the lesson. If you notice an outdated step, send support the lesson URL, the software version, and what changed so the content team can review it.

CVs & Certificates

Yes. You can download certificates after completing selected learning content. Use them to recognize your achievement and show proof of completion when it helps your learning, job search, or program records.

Certificates are available for selected learning content, not every article or lesson. If a certificate is available, you will see a completion or certificate option after finishing the relevant content.

Yes. You can use LearnFree's CV creator to build or update a professional CV using the skills you have gained, even if you are starting from scratch.

Use certificates as supporting proof of learning and use the CV tool to present your skills clearly. They are most useful when paired with specific examples of what you can now do, such as building a spreadsheet, writing a resume, or using email safely.

Sign in before you start and complete the required lessons, activities, or quizzes for the course. When a certificate is available and your required work is complete, the certificate option will appear in your account or completion area.

Teacher Guides

Yes. Start with the Teacher Guides if you want to use LearnFree in a classroom, workshop, library program, or guided learning setting.

Download the practice file first, then open the downloaded copy in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or the matching program. If the file opens in your browser as view-only, look for the download icon or download option, save the file to your device, and edit the saved copy.

Quizzes and interactive activities appear inside the related course or lesson pages when they are available. If you used a quiz on the old site and cannot find it now, check the current course page first, then contact support with the topic name.

Yes. You can link to LearnFree lessons from a syllabus, class page, resource list, or training program. Link to the lesson or topic page directly so learners always land on the current version.
