    Hi, just wondering about your thoughts on the quality of the various sites out there offering courses, mostly free, some you pay for assessments, etc.

    Where an official postgrad/masters, isn’t really feasible at the moment, when looking to upskill myself in my own time, how do these sites for example (or any others you can suggest) stack up? Are they a good learning basis, are some more respected than others, etc.

    Coursera
    Udacity
    Udemy
    PluralSight
    Etc

    Particularly interested in people that would be interviewing candidates for roles. When quizzed on a particular language or skill, and these sites are mentioned, what is the feeling on them? Or does it matter once you can show you have the understanding the employer is looking for?

    Thanks,
    MartinAnt
