Danny,
I personally really like Coursera - kind of like going back to school (I have a MA in Psychology). I was working at SpinSpire, a Drupal shop, contracted out to Florida Blue. When Jitesh, the owner of SpinSpire, wanted his contractors to expand their skill set by taking Andrew Ng's 12 week Machine Learning course. I loved the class and finished it while everyone else dropped out after the first week because they thought they were going to learn how to use an API. To me, it was a great class to learn about how and why machine learning works. I ended up taking the 5 course Deep Learning specialization and also the 5 course Big Data specialization. I have been trying to combine my experience as a developer with my new knowledge of machine learning to be a Data Science Application Developer. And for Christmas, my wife gave me (at my request) a Coursera Plus subscription which lets me take unlimited courses and specializations for 1 year. It was $399.00, but still a good investment in my book.
This current specialization has been great - the instructor does a good job of presenting a classroom lecture followed by specific programming exercises and then finishes off the week with a peer graded assignment. My one complaint is that the material is starting to get dated - for example, React hooks are not covered. And when importing, he uses older versions, so I had to make some adjustments when working on a project of my own. But I'm also working on a more up-to-date course through Udemy, "React Native - The Practical Guide 2020". So now just working on a couple of apps.
That's a long answer, probably more then you wanted to know...
