Ah what the heck. For the sake of a tenner I'll grab it and give it a go.

Thank you for thread OP, picked up the AWS Solutions Architect course.

I've been slowly working my way through the Web Developer 2.0 Course, decided to pick up the Bootcamp one as well. Bootcamp sounds a lot more in depth. I'll probably work my way through both of them, reiteration is never a bad thing.
Going back and forth on picking up "The Ultimate Drawing Course". Has anyone tried it?

Gravity is a myth, the Earth SUCKS!
Sale shows as over for me, perhaps there's regional differences, or a page that hasn't been refreshed in over a day.
I wish I could do these for a month or two as if I were a full time student. I ended up getting the Python for Data Science and Machine Learning Bootcamp. Was debating between R and Python. I've already done some machine learning stuff in R so I figured I could see how it's done in Python and then continue with the language I felt more comfortable in.
Anyone want to recommend a graphic design course? I'm more interested in Illustrator and InDesign than anything else but it would be cool to learn something that I didn't already know in Photoshop. I'm also looking at a Perspective drawing class. I added in the Web Design Bootcamp since I did in in undergrad but I didn't feel like I learned at a good pace.

Got a few courses, specifically Python, R, and SQL. How long of studying these languages would you say is sufficient enough to list them as proficient on my resume? At what point can I consider them viable skills for a job?

Anyone interested in data science (including ML or DA) should just use Datacamp to get started, especially if you're not familiar with R or Python. Udacity also has free courses that range from okay to pretty good as well, and they have an active community. Once you feel comfortable you can start messing with Kaggle, which is also free.

So glad I saw this post. I signed up to the SQL Bootcamp, Google Analytics Exam prep, Web Developer Bootcamp, and a Digital Marketing class.
I'm a CS student wondering what I should specialize in (currently taking a data structures/algorithms class) so I got the Unity C# course, Python/Data Science Bootcamp, and Web Developer Bootcamps recommended here. I'm also looking at Android app development courses but I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion for which one is best or how they compare.

Are those second coupons not working?

When I try the other codes, they're still stuck at 15 dollars per course for me and it disables the other codes.
Although that's Canadian... I don't know if it's suppose to knock down the price to 10 dollars Canadian or 10 American. lol
If you end up purchasing could you confirm if it charges you USD or CAD? I'm out of the country so it's charging me EUR. If the dollar prices are in USD the differences between it and CAD is small enough that I'll take the hit. If the dollar prices are in CAD I'd like to find some way to buy the courses in CAD.
ARH1C202 worked for me in the US. I got the following courses:
Discover How To Draw and Paint Comics
Drawing Perspective for Beginners
Web Developer Bootcamp (dabbled in HTML in undergrad)
Using C# Unity (I dabbled with with it a bit in undergrad as well as Javascript)
Character Design
Graphic Design Bootcamp
Digital Painting in Manga Studio 5

It looks like it wants to charge me in CAD.
How much is it in Euro?
Maybe it really is meant to be 10 USD and not 15 USD, which is why it's confusing.

Do you just checkout from the app?
On iOS it looks like it uses your apple credit, which is taxed. Might explain why it's 13.99 there, but I'm not sure.
Yeah. I'm on Android, where it's not taxed tho.
I'm not sure why, but the courses are all showing up as $10 for me without any coupons. I'm gonna have to buy a few (especially if I can stack the coupon codes on top of that).
EDIT: Looks like they auto-applied a coupon code (TRANSFORM202). Still, $10 each is dirt cheap - I just bought 6 more to go with the ones I already had.

The same code automatically applied for me too. All courses as $10. Pretty great deal!
You can buy them all at once. Just add each course to your cart and all of them are discounted at checkout.

The Android class that I linked to on the first page is fantastic.
Damn, it tries to charge me $15 EUR (haven't tried the coupon yet) which is about $22 CAD. Not the biggest of deals but when stretched over potentially multiple purchases it adds up. I guess the easiest option would be to give my credentials to a family member, have them buy it and then wire them the money.

Do both. Finish CS50, as it gives you some Python and web dev which supplements nicely with Udemy courses.
Udemy is nice for the practical aspect, but CS50 gives an introduction to data structures and algorithms and such, which most udemy courses skip. After CS50 look into other MOOC's for more on the theoretical parts of CS.
Or use a VPN.

Just bought 10 courses, I know I won't do them all, or some I might not start, but the prices are too good and I need to brush up/learn/sharpen my skills. So many skills.
In the same boat as you guys. Been doing some mobile game and web development at the company I work at, so there's always a million things new to learn.
You can always find the tutorials on youtube, but I find the udemy ones just go through them at the right pace and make sure you always understand the UI or basics or whatever you are learning, very well.
Gotta a buncha unity, web development, and also some figure drawing, and a cartooning one. More expensive for me since I am stuck in the UK.
Prices are parity now, pound for a dollar. Woulda cost me £60, now £100. Oh well, I figure the courses are worth it, and will be useful. Don't know how useful, but they will be useful.

This is great. I've decided to go for more personal development styles courses, improve my memory and learn a bit about entrepreneurship!
Been keen to start writing a novel or a screenplay too so I bought a course on that!
Come on brain, we can DO THIS!!!!!!!

Highly recommend the Aaron Sorkin Masterclass (not on Udemy) too. Its unbelievably good. Especially if you're a West Wing fan.

Anyone have experience with the CSS courses offered on this site? I have two employees--one knows CSS basics and the other is a complete noob. Hoping to buy good ones for both of em. Thanks!

After farting about for a few months with code academy and other similar sites i've decided to pick up Learn Bootstrap Development By Building 10 Projects and The Web Developer Bootcamp.
Is SQL what people use to make sites that read and present player stats from games like Destiny? Once i'm more comfortable making a site that looks nice I wouldn't mind looking into something like that.

Having trouble deciding on an R course. The most popular beginner one there seems more focused on slowly introducing you to programming concepts and I'd rather kind of speed through those and get to putting it to use working some basic statistics problems. This one seems maybe more what I'm looking for, but it assumes some level of knowledge of R already. Maybe I'll just audit some of the courses over at coursera and see how that goes.

Please be careful when buying courses from here. Despite their rating, which can be very misleading (some courses make users give high ratings so that you can access other courses at a discount) There are some very poor courses on here. For every one amazing course you find on here I guarantee you'll find 5-10 real shitty versions of the same course that you'll wish you never wasted the time or money on. Do your homework before buying guys.
If you're not happy, you can request a refund. I had to do this once when I found out that a course i had bought was all just images, when it really should have had videos.
Yeah, I figured I'd roll the dice on some, figuring that -- at $10 a crack -- I'd be getting my money's worth overall if even a few I bought were good.
