Online Training Anyone ?

I've recently had a no cost  opportunity to study pretty much
whatever I wanted by way of online courses provided by
one vendor, like lynda or vtc.

I actually learned a fair amount.

As it happens, that opportunity is no more and I'm wondering
would anyone else would have interest in [ comparatively ] low
cost access to training of this type ?

The idea is that we could investigate pooling resources to get an annual
subscription thatcould be shared between several of us. I'm guessing there
is an account of this type that could be had. This might be organized under
Marin Professionals, so that the membership could gain access.

Thoughts, responses and so forth are welcomed !
