I wanted to comment on here because it looks like from the Drexel certificate you uploaded, that the certificate is provided through MindEdge which is a third party company. It depends on what you're looking for, but I just wanted to note that several, if not all, of Duke University's professional education programs are also run by MindEdge. If prestige or brand matters to you, I'd opt for Duke. I completed a certificate through Duke in Business Communications. It says Duke on it with the MindEdge logo on the side. I also did some Human Resource Management courses via the institution. The prices for the Duke courses go as low as 95 dollars, in case anyone didn't know on here. The link is https://learnmore.duke.edu/certificates I think several universities must use MindEdge's services.
The third-party Mindedge certificates regardless of Duke or Drexel are just that a waste of time compared to the University of Arkansas Certificate in Capitalism which is the real deal. Duke/Drexel will never know who you are.
In the end, you will feel more achievement with the one University of Arkansas Certificate than 20 MOOCs.
