Coursera Square

This icon presents the Coursera symbol in a square format, providing a standardized geometric container ideal for educational credential badges and online learning platform indicators. The squared design ensures visual consistency when displaying multiple learning platforms in professional portfolios and resume education sections.

In digital CV platforms and LinkedIn profiles, you'll see this squared variant maintaining uniform dimensions alongside other education icons like edX and Udacity. Professional development portfolios use the square format to create organized certification grids, while learning management systems display this icon in systematic course completion indicators with predictable spacing.

From a credentials presentation perspective, the square container communicates more than just geometric standardization - it specifically signals verified online learning completion, enables rapid visual identification of professional development activities, and reinforces the legitimacy of MOOC credentials alongside traditional degrees. This distinction helps hiring managers quickly recognize candidates' commitment to continuous learning and skill development.

Coursera Square is one of 158 icons in Academicons, made by James Walsh and released under Open Font License. It is drawn on a 448 × 512 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds CourseraSquareIcon to components/icons/academicons-coursera-square.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed CourseraSquareIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Coursera Square icon, or any of 158 Academicons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 448 × 512 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Coursera Square", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. CourseraSquareIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <CourseraSquareIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. The Open Font License allows commercial use; the icons can't be sold on their own. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: Open Font License only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Academicons, James Walsh and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are education, learning, square, badge and certification. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for Coursera Square in another set.
