Conceivably, there could be a complementary movement focused on designing curricula based on such freely available courses. These curricula could even be based on offerings from several services.

Companies can set curricula based on what their requirements are. And I can see possible demand for influential people to create and share curricula related to their areas of expertise.

Yes, imagine a website where you post step-by-step instructions to a goal. The work of discovery is done by the curator and the student can wander through the paths just a link away from the necessary material. Match that with a quora-like information architecture and you've got something going.
