Re: What's been the most valuable course you have taken?

Two courses come to mind:

1. HTML - I took a course that lasted just a few weekends, and was
astonished to learn how easy it is. In the three jobs I've had since I
learned it, I've used it extensively at all of them, even though none of
them required it in their initial job descriptions. I am continually
amazed at how many extrememly techical people I know - including software
developers - don't know it! The world has gone to the Web - you should
learn what goes on "behind the curtain!"

2. A professional/business writing course -  For those non-English majors
like myself who are strong writers more by instinct than by training, this
was a great refresher/cleaner-upper for me. Not literature, not creative
writing, but how to write in a _business_ context. I took the course
grudgingly (I don't need no steenkin' writing lessons) and was amazed at
how much it helped.
