Software people are such a "DIY" crowd, that I think selling courses to us (or selling courses to our employers) is a crappy prospect. The hacker ethos is to build it yourself, so paying for courses seems like a poor mismatch.
I have a family member that produces training courses for salespeople; she's doing fantastic.
This reminds me of some similar startup advice of: don't sell to musicians. They don't have any money, and they're well-versed in scrappy research to fill their needs.
Finally, if you're against AI, you might have missed how good of a learning tool LLMs can be. The ability to ask _any_ question, rather than being stuck-on-video-rails, is huge time-saver.
