Listing a skill is not the same as evidencing it. On Freecoursera each skill in your wallet carries proof — a finished course, a project you shipped, or work you logged — with a date attached. When you apply to a job through the platform, that evidence travels with the application, so employers see the receipts rather than a claim.
