I see a lot of youtubers that I follow suggest that an account there is worth it and maybe even essential for some great tips and courses. Do you use them? Are they good?

I want to learn programming this year but I don't know if I should PAY a course on Skillshare or Udemy to learn Python/C++ or try to go and browse the internet to learn them.

I’m always looking for new ways to learn. I remember all those Skillshare ads on YouTube lol but am a little skeptical since ive been in the industry for a while and dont know if any courses are worth it for my level. Any experiences?

Anyone here have an idea?

Please tell me I don’t know what to do

Hoi, I am a bba student and I am aiming towards getting placed by the end of my program.

I want to go for advance Excel related cours and I know youtube is an alternative and I have learnt the basics from youtube only but the problem is there is too much content and no organization of topics and it often leads to confusion and doubts.

So is it worth buying a course for advance Excel learning from these platforms? Does their certificate has some value? ( is it worth mentioning in resume ) Or should I opt for offline classes somewhere else?

Or if anyone else have some other suggestions, do let me know.

Thank you.

There's so many learning platforms out there offering similar coursework. How do you choose?

Hello,

I wanted to know if Udemy is legit to learn hypnotherapy? Or skillshare? I would like to further my education but I’m not sure if learning what they teach is true, authentic, practical and really is used in the world of hypnotherapy.

I remember hearing about a platform that offers tons of free courses and classes, kind of like taking online college courses but without the cost. I can’t, for the life of me, remember what it was called though. Has anyone else heard of something like this?

Right now, I usually turn to audiobooks, podcasts, YouTube, and social media to learn new things, but I love the idea of something more interactive and structured. Any recommendations?

I want to learn graphic design but have limited budget. Which is better Skillshare or Udemy?

I'm reading advise online that it's better to upload courses you create onto your own platform instead of Udemy/Skillshare, reasons being (not an exhaustive list):

1. Build an email list - You can collect emails whereas Udemy/Skillshare they won't share that information.

2. Extension of above - you get to upsell other courses/products/services, whereas Udemy/SS you'd have to create more courses in order to create credibility (not sure how true that is?)

3. You only get a fraction of the revenue (I understand Skillshare works a bit differently but a fraction nonetheless), whereas if you had your own platform you would get everything.

However...if you were to sell your courses on your own platform you'd need (I imagine) something like Kajabi which costs $100+/month to use, then the time + effort to create your platform - is it really worth it? Would love to hear from people who have actually tried both methods i.e. Udemy/SS (or some other course marketplace) vs own platform.
