Continued Education

What are some good ways to continue learning after finishing school?

I finished college and am trying to pursue some hobbies and interests. I just started with Skillshare. What other sources should I check out?

  • Another place to check out is MasterClass.

  • MA/MS/MBA or the like. There always are plenty of classes to take, online or in person, degree-seeking or not. 

    Alternatively, find the best credential that fits your career goals and pursue it.. Seek out the financial aid/support needed (avoid crippling debt). 

    Continuing ed is one of the best career moves & personal growth endeavors one can make.

    I really like looking for courses on Domestika.org. They have a nice variety.

    Volunteering with local non-profit offers some good practical opportunity too.

    If you have professional intents, look after accredited certifications. Much better than online courses that might give you skills, but won't help you moving further.

    You can just buy some books on programming if you want to learn it. I've got some on java and python.

    I find that joining different Forums Online is a good way to stay up to date with new technology in my field, and in hobbies.  REDDIT has many of these.  Getting higher degrees at night school, or on-line is another way to improve your professional skills.  If you can find an actual group of people to meet with and discuss your interests, that is also a great way; This used to be called being in a "club", but is now mostly online in forums..

    Certification or advance degrees would be a logical next step, provide pursuing them advances your career goals, provides personal growth, & keeps you from unreasonable debt.

    I've done a lot of the Great Courses via audiobook. They have pretty much something for everyone!
