I can definitely see the value in having a classroom setting learning environment. Sure some people can learn on their own, but there's quite a bit of noise out there in all the tutorials and how-tos.

If a $2800 course could filter all the crap out, teach the basics and get a beginner up to the level where a beginner can start teaching themselves then the $2800 is well spent.

Of course if the class doesn't follow through then it's just like most of the actual college courses I took - a waste of time.
