With regards to your use of the word 'worthless' relating to the Coursera certificate of completion.

Many university courses aren't significantly different to Coursera so I think that if the courses keep up their standards and enough people have knowledge of them then it is possible that that certificate will not remain worthless.

We were discussing Coursera at work last week and I think that if a job candidate appeared with Coursera completion certificates on their CV then it wouldn't be looked at unfavourably.
