Coursera est une entreprise numérique proposant des formations en ligne ouvertes à tous, fondée par les professeurs d'informatique Andrew Ng et Daphne Koller de l'université Stanford (Californie). Le 16 août 2012, 1 080 000 étudiants de 196 pays s'étaient inscrits à au moins un cours. Coursera a été lancée peu après Udacity, entreprise par l'ancien professeur de Stanford Sebastian Thrun, et peu avant edX, une initiative à but non lucratif de formation en ligne par le MIT et Harvard.
