The word "Specialization" for MLS and DLS incorrectly spelled in Coursera Profile

Anyone else’s Coursera profile contained a mispelled MLS and DLS? This is really annoying I reported it months ago and Coursera says ‘they’re working on it’ and hasn’t fixed it. Both my specializations are mispelled as ‘specilization’

Goto Coursera.com → click the dropdown by your name → profile.

Extremely frustrating.

I can’t imagine someone manually made this typo TWICE. Is everyone’s profile like this?

Hi @John_Pan ,

You are right about the mistakes on that page, where the letter ‘a’ is missing from the word ‘specilization’. I have checked other course content page, as well as my certificate for DLS, and can confirm no error is found.

Also, I just noticed a spelling error in this thread title. I think you intended to say 'word’ and not ‘world’ right?

Thank you @Kic I missed that a, will notify the L.T of the course.

Thank you @John_Pan and apologise for the missing the spelling correction.

Regards

@Community-Team, please see this thread.

Do you have any input on correcting typos in the certificate text shown in the student’s Coursera profile?

Ok, so you don’t have the error, it’s just me. That’s extra frustrating.

Thanks, I fixed the typo in the title.

What is the L.T?

Thanks.

Thankfully, the PDF certificate itself is free of typos. But I can’t send anyone to my Coursera profile because those stupid typos look terrible and unprofessional.
