Hmm, I wonder, if they want to make money out of it as well or not. My question is why I would spend 150$ on a online course, that I can get on edX or elsewhere

Hmm, I wonder, if they want to make money out of it as well or not. My question is why I would spend 150$ on a online course, that I can get on edX or elsewhere for free?
what is the catch :?
- solarmist 14y agoIt's for credit. That's pretty much it. I can't think of any other reasons.
- Mutinix 14y agoYou can take the course for free, but you won't get credit for it. From the Udacity blog: "Living up to our promise to always provide a free path to high-quality education, we are also offering these courses free of charge as conventional MOOCs, but this path will not include instructor access, additional support services, or a path to college credit."

- rikacomet 14y agoAs a recruiter, how can I tell if someone who payed, did really learn something from the course? Does the paid version, has a tougher exam?
