I paid for their self driving car class, very early. It was a mistake to do that. Not because the class material or teaching was bad. On the contrary it was very good. Rather because they did not let me access the materials after the class was over. They would not let me postpone completion of the class based on my schedule. It was very much like a real course. I thought it would be more like a course that I could complete on my own schedule if I missed their schedule. I didn't want their certificate. I just wanted to learn the material. After paying over $600 for the course, it really rubbed me the wrong way that they shut me out of the course lectures and materials. It would not have cost them anything to allow me to learn at my own pace. But they decided to go that way. One of the points that was really annoying and borderline fraudulent is that their free courses don't operate like that. Those materials are available to you all the time. It's just the courses you pay for where your experience is worse. Go figure. Anyway, $600 was a cheap way to learn the lesson not to buy a course from them again. I really think there's a place for a good company to sell courses on emerging technology, and to charge premium prices. They just have to understand that most people need to be able to tackle the material in a self-paced manner. Some of us have jobs and families.
