Today I was wondering how I could use my free time to increase my skills.
I’ve just finished all my website, I’ve finished to study Java (now my job is enough) and I’ve finished to take all English certificates.
Now I would like to use the next 6 months from march to August for studying English.
But six months is too much time for watching every day English videos.
I needed another hobby, for instance, another course in English, the best choice is a computer engineering course in English language in this way I could simulate an Erasmus.
is it possible to study a Computer science course in English language here in Milan?
yes it is and I have just discovered a platform that offers lots of courses and at the end of each one I could take a certificate.
the main problem of these courses is that they have a fixed time, for instance I have to finish a course in two weeks and there are a lot of courses in the same time.
this means that if I have to attend 3 courses in the same time and I needed 10 hours a week for each one, I would need 30 hours at week in total and it’s too much time.
Otherwise if I didn’t attend a course I will do it next year.
My decision is trying to do all these courses, if I had any problems I could postpone the less important course even if this means that I’ll do it after a year
The subjects of there courses are:
- Machine Learning
- Python (2 courses)
- Image and video processing
- Cryptography
When all these courses expire, other courses begin and I could take other certificates. It’s better than my university but now I’ve no time and everything is more difficult but I love challenges.
The first course which name is Cryptography begins tomorrow and finishes the 18th of April 2015 but I need to finish it by the 30th of March because then I’ll attend two courses: Python and Image processing and I wouldn’t like to attend three courses at the same time.
I’ll keep you updated
Michele
