Year World Records

Hanzala Nazir of Faisalabad, Pakistan, who was 16 at the time, earned 347 online course certificates between December 2025 and September 2026, from Coursera and edX courses run by universities such as Imperial College London, the University of Cambridge and Stanford, plus Forage job simulations, Springpod work experience programs and HP LIFE business courses. RecordSetter checked each certificate on its issuer's own verification page in his name, and left out continuing medical education credits, bundled program certificates and badges. In the video, an Unfold Pakistan reporter interviews him in a Faisalabad room lined with bookshelves. That is a full year of homework, and then some.
