The cost of a Nanodegree program varies program to program and can be found on a program's overview page. Prices range from $399 to $2,400 depending on the program and most programs take between 6-12 months to complete.
Some of the materials for the individual courses—and the associated projects that make up the Nanodegree program curricula—are accessible for free. You can find any free courses in the syllabus section of the relevant Nanodegree program overview page or by browsing the course catalogue. However, to earn a Nanodegree credential, and enjoy the exclusive benefits (including project review, forums, and career support) you will need to be enrolled in the paid program.
