Short MOOCs are effective..

Massive Open Online Courses are getting popular as popular learning mediums for people of all ages and groups. Over the past one week I have done the following MOOCs from Coursera, Google and Future Learn.

1. AI for Everyone - Coursera, INR 2100/- 
2. Understanding Basics of Machine Learning - Google, Free 
3. Improve your own Business Security,  Google, free  
4. Introduction to Digital Wellbeing,  Google, Free 
5. How to increase Productivity at work, Google,  free 
6. Effective Networking,  Google and Future Learn,  free
Have started a new MOOC from IBM titled Introduction to Data Science. Coursera offers courses free as well as in paid format. At a monthly cost of about Rs 2800, you can finish a course with the capstone project or finish it one's leisure 

The above MOOCs are effective short courses from one hour duration to max ten hours duration  to keep oneself professionally updated and relevant . Pl go to coursera.org and  learndigital.withgoogle.com for a complete list of courses that I have taken over the past one week.

Learning new topics and concepts at any age keeps the brain active and young, building or connecting new synapses and neurons in the brain, reducing or prolonging the onset of da ementia or Alzheimers disease..

So keep learning..
