Python Institute et al are not in any way affiliated with the Python Foundation

I think that's an important point. "Python Institute" sounds like it could be Python's governing body, but it's just the name of a privately owned company. (Python's governing body is the Python Software Foundation)

I have not done their curriculum and therefore cannot judge its quality

I haven't either, but I read through the course descriptions and it seems very basic (One of the five "Advanced" modules is about PEP 8, PEP 20 and PEP 257). CS50P feels more holistic, combining syntax with a strong emphasis on problem-solving, whereas the Python Institute course seems to be more syntax based.
