While attending a conference or workshop is totally worth it for networking and learning from others in-person, online courses give you the flexibility to learn from anywhere in the world and they are competitively priced, to boot. Also, I recently learned that an Amazon Prime membership gives you access to tons (and I mean tons) of free online courses through Amazon, several of which I’ve listed in this round-up.
Whether you’re looking to freshen up your skills or add something new to your tool belt, this list includes courses that will appeal to seasoned pros and beginners alike!
