Re: [Proposal] schema:OnlineCourse

1. Is it worth adding a "prerequisiteCourse" property to list the
prerequisites for the given course?
    - IMO, "prerequisiteCourse" or "requirements" for the Course could
provide rich snippets for users to know if it is appropriate for him/her.
2. Can we change "isCertificateAvailable" from a boolean to something with
a little more data? Maybe the type of certificate granted or the
institution granting the certificate?
    - +1, and then it will need Certificate type and additional properties
to think about.
