Has anyone tried out Udemy to learn safety related topics?
For those who don't know, Udemy is an online learning platform where users can pay for classes in pretty much anything. They do have quite a bit of material on safety related topics:

The only caveat is that I don't believe these courses count towards CEUs or towards any certifications. The courses are simply just for personal knowledge (someone can correct me if I'm wrong there).
I'm interested to hear if anyone has tried a safety related Udemy course and if so, how did they like it. For those of you who haven't tried it (like myself), is this something you think your employer would pay for? I feel like if the courses counted towards CEUs my employer would pay for it, otherwise probably not.

We use Red Vector at work. Our electricians can stay up to date on 70E, IT dept can earn relevant certifications, HSE can earn OSHA 10’s in 1910 and 1926 and several other great courses. The cost per year per library isn’t much. You can probably get a single subscription to the safety library for less than you’d spend on a nice dinner out with the family. That library opens DOT, OSHA, MSHA, some EPA like Hazwoper refresher etc… can’t beat the investment in my opinion. There are some platforms that do one thing or the other better, but overall they get solid grades across the board. The LMS is incredible too. Check it out!
