This is like some advice I figured out from experience about software courses.

Don’t do the course until you have tried doing the thing without the course first and hit the pain points.

Then, when attending the course your brain is in a different mode. You are filling the gaps rather than laying the foundations. And you get much better value out of it.

(This is for in person courses where you can ask questions - so the value you get out of it might be how good your questions are)
