Interesting because I've often wondered if I should spend money on passing degrees or just learning by myself. Finally, no courses or degrees here but maybe it is worth sometimes following one or two of them.
However, maybe having too much is not a good solution since we can also leverage our own experience to enforce our knowledge and improve our skills.
