Compare courses for a defined learning goal

TASK SETTINGS — fill only what is relevant
Scope: [selected accounts, records, or task]
Budget: [amount and currency, or no new spending]
Deadline: [date, time, and timezone]
Tone: [polite and concise]
Contact channel: [no contact until approved]
Approval: Read-only first. Ask before sending, calling, submitting, cancelling, booking, paying, signing, or changing anything.

Choose a learning option based on the actual syllabus and constraints.

Use only the accounts and materials I authorize. Start with: the skill goal, current level, schedule, budget, preferred format and any required credential.

Compare current official syllabi, prerequisites, assessment methods, instructor information, time commitments and refund terms. Distinguish accredited credentials from certificates of completion. Look for a representative lesson or sample before relying on marketing testimonials. Include a free alternative where credible and relevant.

Work read-only and prepare drafts first. Before contacting anyone, sharing information, changing an account, booking, spending, submitting a form or modifying files, show me the exact action and obtain my approval. Do not enroll, create accounts or promise employment outcomes.

Verify that your tools actually support the requested work. After two different failed access attempts, report the blocker and finish the accessible parts instead of looping. Never invent an action, source, availability or confirmation.

Return: a shortlist with curriculum fit, total cost, realistic study load, credential caveats and questions before enrollment. Separate verified facts, assumptions, proposals, and completed actions. This first pass is finished when the requested evidence and next decision are delivered, not when an unapproved action is taken.
