Wow! I just discovered Lynda.com. It's fantastic.

I have been looking to take courses to get basic training on programming, marketing, design etc... The college course offered near me goes for $1,400 for one semester. I contacted my local library and they are not providing courses on these topics but are in Excel, PowerPoint and other office programs. I also placed an ad on Craigslist for a private tutor - but so far no one is biting.

The librarian just recommended to me Lynda.Com and I went there and it is excellent. I am getting the first 10 days for free and after that it will be $25 per month.

I am taking now the Keyword course and I am learning a lot and the information is presented professionally. I'm having fun.

    This is one of the oldest and best clearing sites online - I learned html there more years ago than I want to admit. Fantastic resource an so inexpensive for what you get.

    Another great place for inexpensive courses is CultofMac.com - amazing deals site and not all just for mac people either.

    Thanks for posting. I agree they have the best prices and beat udemy hands down on pricing at least.
    Thank you both (Adorer and Melody) for sharing.

    best,

    And what I love about Lynda.com is that you can preview parts of a lot of courses, so you can see if it's going to work out for you. Cheers!

      Lynda.com is good, but I should add I have not paid for a Udemy course for some time.

      There is a WSO on how to do this. Completely legit and with the instructors blessing.

      I am doing a Twitter course and I went from zero to 1000 followers in 4 days!!

      Good education is worth the time, no doubt.

    For those who weren't aware, LinkedIn bought Lynda.com for $1.5 billion a few days ago.
