    I noticed that Coursera provide Specialization certs at a fees. I wonder if such courses can be converted to credits anywhere?

    They aren't ACE recommended. However, any school that does a portfolio review, in theory, would at least consider them. If I can get credits for the mind numbing, and wholly unaccredited, project management course I took at work there exists the possibility of getting credit for MOOCs.

    That said, I don't know if any of the big 3 have been willing to take that plunge. I doubt it would be an institutional policy (like accepting credits from RA schools). So it will all come down to whether an individual has attempted this and if it has worked.
