content: Thanks for the heads up! I've been doing a Udemy course on Kicad that I bought, so far it's been good, and well worth the $15 I paid.

content: FYIIt is not easy to order from TI, they want a lot of info. For company name I put "Self" for company URL I put "eevblog.com". What confused me the most was "Name" there were several fields that I ended up put my name into.I looked at it this way: if I could not figure out how to order I would not figure out how to use the silly thing. So ordering is a "pre-test".

content: Hey thanks for the heads up on this. If you click "buy from distributor" on the TI link you can get the board for $18.63 from Mouser. May be worth the extra 64 cents if TI is a PITA, I think this is the way I will go.

I guess it depends on if you like taking mental tests (via TI). I am proud that I passed and was able to order from TI. For me it was worth the 40 cents for the mental test.Summary: Order from Mouser if you do not need the mental challenge ordering from TI.

content: https://www.udemy.com/mcu_msp430/learn/v4/overviewI think I am about 1/2 done. FYI this is really a PDF based course. The videos are short introductions to the PDFs. It works really well because the PDF downloads are presented along the way. You do not have to search for them. My printer is getting a work out.The PDFs are very detailed. For example the one on "AND" is 18 pages.So far the board has not been used nor have I received mine.Was able to install CCS installed easy enough.So far I am pleased but expect that I will have to look into other resources because I have a lot of dead brain cells.

If they marketed your course aggressively (they take a bigger cut) you would think they get more sign ups. It looks like they take 3% if you don't need help marketing.https://support.udemy.com/hc/en-us/articles/229605008

There are not many (if any) tutorials on the MSP430. I do not watch any videos because they were just intros to the PDFs.I figure it takes me a month to do what a college student would do in a day. I do it as a challenge to fight off dementia.Because of Shock I have a couple of boards, a parts kit, a foot tall of PDFs. I wish more members would come up with tutorials.A big hand and a big thanks for Shock

I suggested a new catagory called "Training"What I would like to know is how to search for free courses if I do not have your link? I tried and failed. Thanks very much for this post.

content: Occasional free offers for paid courses does not constitute a sticky nor it's own forum in my opinion. It doesn't even belong in another thread as any posts can be redundant in a few days. This forum seems the perfect place for it along with the other electronics related deals I have posted.

I'll have to see what Dave wants to do as free stuff is always good to post up as a sticky but commercial people should really be paying for an advertisement slot, that's what keeps this thing going

content: I am currently enrolled in another free online course site edX. I need to learn python for my final year project, fairly straight forward. The course is free but getting a recognised certificate is US $99. I think this is god value for any potential commercial recognition. The free version has an auditing process so the certificate is available so far right throughout my course. So if i feel it is worth it I can upgrade.I like the concept although i am prominently RF I am not sure if i wish to fork out for the basic course. Still the concept is really great.

content: Just to clarify things, the Udemy free offer courses that I have seen don't expire once signed up during the free offer period. They aren't bait and switch tactics, more promotional to get people to view and review the courses and get likes etc, much like a restaurant giving free meals.I've been using them for quite a while and never paid a cent as most of topics I'm interested in come up from time to time with a free course, some of them are quite comprehensive but don't expect an engineering degree here.
