What is EXPLR?

EXPLR is a free learning platform and media brand for curious young people. Watch original series and award-winning content, learn real skills, and prove them with EXPLR Edge® credentials — alongside school, not instead of it.

Who can use EXPLR?

EXPLR is built for curious young people aged 13 and up. It's free to start — just create an account and dive in.

What's on EXPLR?

Content spans STEM, the arts, social studies, careers, and real-world skills — original series plus award-winning content from our partners. New releases land regularly.

Is EXPLR free?

Yes — watching EXPLR is free. Some EXPLR Edge® programs, where you earn a credential, carry a fee.

What is EXPLR Edge®?

EXPLR Edge® is how you prove what you've learned — a verifiable, shareable digital badge issued through Credly and mapped to the EXPLR Skills Framework. It's real proof of real learning; not an accredited qualification, and that boundary is the point.

Do I need an app to watch?

No. Just open EXPLR in any web browser, on any device — phone, tablet, or computer. No app or download needed, and everything to watch is free.

Does EXPLR work for classroom or remote learning?

Yes. EXPLR works anywhere you have a browser — at home, in class, or after school. It's a flexible fit for hybrid classrooms, home learning, and afterschool programs.

Is EXPLR available in other languages?

All EXPLR videos include English captions, and many also include Spanish subtitles.

Is EXPLR accessible, and is my data safe?

Yes. EXPLR supports assistive technology, and we protect your personal data in line with COPPA (US), the UK GDPR, and EU data-protection law. If you're in the UK or EU, you have rights over your data — including access, correction, and deletion — and younger users may need a parent or guardian's consent depending on their country. See our Privacy Policy for details.

How old do I have to be — and who pays for Edge®?

You must be 13 or older to use EXPLR. To purchase a paid EXPLR Edge® program, you must be 18 or older; for a learner under 18, an adult makes the purchase.

In the EU, younger users may need a parent or guardian's consent depending on their country. See our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.

How do payments and cancellations work for Edge®?

EXPLR is free. For paid EXPLR Edge® programs, fees are shown at checkout, and cancellation and refund terms are described in our Cancellation Policy.
