Why you should enroll in an online course in 2019 or 2020
I've written before about how I think learning will shift away from telling people which processes and frameworks to follow to helping people practice skills while they learn. A lot of our billions spent on L&D programs today will seem a bit silly.
I tell you this to argue that most online courses are still a bargain. For less then a normal college course tuition, you can learn skills that will radically increase your skills at work, improve your promotion chances ("This course helped me get promoted!") and even give you more confidence to work on your own.
One of the cool things about online courses is that you typically get lifetime access to the materials AND get access to future improvements in the materials and sessions. Think about that for a second. Have you ever been invited back to a class you took 10 years ago in college?
Here are some online courses where you dramatically improve circumstances in your life for less than a college course tuition (I have no financial arrangement with any of them):
