Ask HN: A high-value paid developer training?
So far I have just picked up books or learning projects and that worked out pretty well for me.
This year, my employer offers a handsome training budget.
I find most of paid trainings not worth it for a senior developer (compared to self-study approach which I prefer).
Have you attended a paid training which is expensive but well worth the money? What did you like about it (compared to just going through a book on the same topic)? I haven't gone through any training about specific technologies that was really "worth it". In contrast, conferences and other gatherings seem to help me understand better those technologies I'm just starting with.
