I can't recall who's studying on it, but I seem to recall a thread on the old place about this online "college" that offered free, online courses on all sorts of subjects from pucker colleges? Don't think you got a qualification, but you got the cleverness.

    Aha! Thanks for reminding me. Their courses look a lot more interesting these days - I think I'm going to dive in on the Machine Learning and NLP courses...probably need to brush up on my uni maths, though (it's been 16 years since I've had to think about that stuff...).

    I'm going to do a course on R I think, I'm sure I could learn it all from a book, but I'm hoping this might give me a bit more of a kick to actually do it!

    www.edx.org is another. If none of them have what you're after, try googling 'mooc' (massively open online course iirc), which might lead you to other providers.

    I gave up on the one I was doing when it turned out I had to do five hours of video interviews one week. Daft.

    My daughter is considering the Cancer Science one next year along with her final year of A levels. The courses are backed up by some of the UK's top uni's; the OU and Warwick being amongst them.

     

     

    The studio 'related' recording course looks pretty good.

    I signed up to a coursera one on Android programming and never heard anything from them after that.
    Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.
