Context-dependent Mar 3, 2024

It really depends on the context of what I am trying to learn. I picked "Self-paced course" because that is what I prefer to educate myself on professional/job-related topics.

I don't know any mediums. I'm not really into necromancy. I certainly wouldn't rely on necromancers for my self-education. But I did once consult a witch, and her predictions turned out to be quite accurate.

Group training, preferably in person.
But mostly it's extensive googling.
