If I was reviewing a resume, I personally would put little stock in anything that: * was not "regionally accredited" * resulted in a course completions that were not readily transferable to institutions that are "regionally accredited" While I have heard some good things about Coursera, I would likely dismiss these courses as not meaningful on a resume. I want to be clear, this is not about dismissing online education in general. For example, an online degree from a regionally accredited university provided through 2U would get my full support. Perhaps Coursera does a similar thing and I am not aware of it. In any case (as far as education goes), the key part for me is who is the degree granting institution and are they regionally accredited and are those credits readily transferable.
