I've been looking around for a course(s) to take at our local arts center or JC but nothings coming up yet. This might be something worth considering for $29 at my own pace. Thoughts?

The full price for that course is ridiculous given the amount of free material out there. The Q&A session seems like the only part that has value. I couldn't find any details on how that works so I would assume it happens through a chat window. If you were just going to watch the course as a recording I'd say take a look at youtube. There are people on their that have put together their own free courses. I've watched several hours of Lightroom videos and still haven't mastered it. I also bought a Tony Northrup book on Amazon for about $20. It's an entire course that includes 12 hours of videos. I'm still trying to find some local classes in my area as well. My friend managed to attend a real class for portrait photography and he learned a lot from it.
