    There are many available online. Just research about them and find the only for yourself.

    Take a look at the courses that Google is offering. You can find absolutely anything you need and they are also very helpful, despite that they are free!

    This website I'm currently using for statistics help (https://www.studypug.com/statistics-help/) they have the free membership and the premium as well. With the free version is more than enough for me at least. If you decide to register (and if you want) shoot me a referral at thegoldbering@gmail.com


    Hope it helps!

    Here's a government funded site - https://www.ecollege.ie/course/

    Its free, and they give you vouchers to sit a professional cert once you have completed your course of choice and passed a mock exam. I did the Prince2 Project Management cert with them.You get a real live tutor that will follow up with you and help if needed. Cannot recommend more highly, our taxes well spent.

    Thanks very much for this. Do you know how much the Prince2 exam costed after using the voucher?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,744 ✭✭✭✭Supercell


    Nothing!, the voucher is a code you use when booking it which changes the cost to zero.

    Hey,
    Great move using this time to upskill! Along with platforms like LinkedIn Learning and Coursera, there are institutes offering flexible online programs in business, IT, and management. I recently came across one that offers everything from short courses to doctorate-level options — really learner-friendly and practical. Definitely worth checking out if you want to explore different fields!

    Hey, it’s great that you’re using your time to learn and keep your brain active! There are a lot of excellent resources out there for free courses across various subjects. Since you're already on FAS eCollege and exploring Excel, here are a few more suggestions:

    1. Coursera – Offers free courses from top universities and companies. While certificates often cost, you can still audit most courses for free. Great for learning about everything from business to tech and personal development.
    2. edX – Similar to Coursera, edX offers free access to university-led courses. You can audit courses for free, though the certificates typically come with a fee.
    3. Khan Academy – A fantastic free resource, especially for foundational topics like math, science, economics, and even personal finance.
    4. FutureLearn – Another platform that offers free online courses from universities and organizations. You can join courses for free, but a certificate may cost extra.
    5. Udemy – While most courses on Udemy cost money, there are often free courses available. You can search for specific topics like Excel, programming, or personal development.
    6. LinkedIn Learning (formerly Lynda.com) – You mentioned finding a free Excel tutorial from here, and they do offer a 1-month free trial which can give you access to a ton of courses across all kinds of subjects.
    7. MIT OpenCourseWare – MIT offers free online versions of many of their courses, especially in the fields of technology, engineering, and science.
    8. YouTube – Sometimes the best tutorials are found here. Many professionals and educators post high-quality content for free, including Excel, coding, design, and more.
