> Aside from the credential, what you're really paying for is personal feedback on projects.

The problem is that in countries as German, Austria (and I heard Brazil, too) there is a mentality of "credential or it did not happen". So for me, living in Germany, the only reason why I might be taking a course offering no credentials is that I am deeply interested in the topic. So perhaps it would be a good idea to offer a "very cheap certificate without any personal feedback".
