How you learn, and ultimately, what you learn is up to you.
You choose. By concentration, effort and everything else that goes into learning. However, the deilvery, or the 'teaching' of that information is what's changing. And by definition, the skills you learn online are the ones that will be used in your career, and really, throughout your life.
