On a more serious note, it would be interesting to know if it's possible

That's an interesting idea - let a bunch of experienced Python users
tell me what a lousy job I have done of explaining the language. :)
Actually Stephan read what I intended -- a way to take the final
test (and receive the cert) without belaboring the taker or you
with the actual course-work. I did that with several classes
back in college where I needed a prereq. for a class but was able
to ace the final for that prereq to show the prof(s) that I knew
the material. Saved me a semester-long class in each case, and
saved the professor the time spent grading my stuff.
That said, having peer-review of your course material can (well,
*should*) only improve it.
