Plug for the RL specialization out of the University of Alberta, hosted on coursera: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/reinforcement-learn... All courses in the specialization are free to audit.

For those unaware, the university of Alberta is Rich Sutton's home institution, and he approves of and promotes the course.

Currently on course 2/4 in the series and it's great. Every week starts with a reading assignment from the RL book followed by a series of videos (re-)explaining stuff. The videos themselves are very nicely structured, with clear outlook and summary at the start and end of them. Sutton himself appears in a couple of videos and there are other great guest lectures with interesting insights about applications.

Definitely a recommendation!
