About the Lagunita Platform

Stanford released the first open source version of the edX platform, Open edX, in June
2013. We named our instance of the Open edX platform Lagunita, after the name of a
cherished lake bed on the Stanford campus, a favorite gathering place of students.
Stanford Online used Open edX technology to offer more than 200 free and open online
courses on the Lagunita platform to more than 10 million learners in 190 countries.

Most courses on Lagunita offered the ability to earn a Statement of Accomplishment,

based on one's overall grade in the course. A Statement of Accomplishment acknowledged
that a Stanford Online course offered through Lagunita was completed with a passing

of the successful completion of the course.

Information for Learners

Learners who were actively engaged with the platform, as well as anyone who had been
issued a Statement of Accomplishment, were notified throughout the beginning of 2020
that the Lagunita platform was closing. These learners were invited to download any
course content and Statements of Accomplishments by March 31, 2020.

Answers to many frequently asked questions for learners prior to the Lagunita retirement
were available on our FAQ page.
