Udemy Courses - Are they good??

trafficlight

Hi All,

I am just wondering are Udemy Courses any good and if they are worth it. I am looking to get some training on using Selenium and gain knowledge of Java programming and came across Udemy courses. Id suppose Im a bit sceptical as you can do these courses for such little money I am wondering if it is too good to be true kinda thing.

Has anyone done there courses - how were they, did you actually gain good knowledge and understanding of what you were hoping to etc.

any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

If you actually watch them, and practice what you learn, they are valuable.

Most people pay for them and never stick with it.

Yes they are.

Some of the stuff on udemy, skillshare, coursera, edx etc. is miles better and more useful than many expensive evening and distant learning courses. Obviously, like everything there are exceptions to the rule but as long as you're not seeking a formal qualification these platforms can provide really valuable knowledge and insight.

Unfortunately, I no experience with Java courses on udemy. Ask around though and people will be able to recommend one.

I went to Cuba last year and did an Udemy Spanish course. Mind you, it was only basic but it was incredibly useful.

i have never used Udemy, but i have used Pluralsight regularly in the past to upskill, Im guessing they are both similar.
I found it really helpful and a good resource to get up to speed with a new tech quickly.
