@OP appreciate your efforts for collecting and combining these courses in tabular form but as said above try to make it big for quote boxes so it's nicely submitted or reduce the text in it.

Will try to look out some of them whenever i get time and enroll myself for the same as well and learn some new things from them which could help me in future.So keep it up and it's good to see that you have taken out time and have made efforts for it as you are still trying it so best wishes to you for the same.

Probably consider the free courses on Saylor’s website (something something Saylor academy or whatever) as well. Haven’t taken them personally but I’ve heard good things about it.

Couldn’t link it as I’m on mobile so dyor.
Yeah it's also good for having bitcoin and other crypto related courses from experience tutors with full details on each topic.

You are right it's Saylor Academy and they also offers various courses like this one for bitcoin related : https://learn.saylor.org/course/PRDV151

Well done OP, I applaud your great effort in compiling this list. On the other hand, I think you should consider this list as suggested by  @witcher_sense. I found it useful too.

Here is a comprehensive list of online courses about bitcoin for technical and non-technical folks: https://www.lopp.net/bitcoin-information/online-offline-classes.html
I would also add Swan Bitcoin courses: https://www.swanbitcoin.com/canon/

Also, I do not mind seeing bitcoin & blockchain courses offered by Udemy as well.They are affordable and serve as a springboard for newbies.

This thread is courageous to any one, but i think this kind of thread has been created by lordhermes in 2020 and in subsequent time it keeps updating it, op i applaud you for your research, but only thing that you would have done after posting the article, is to create reserve three or four space first before any response coming for upgrade the thread, but you can also add more by editing the work and add more relevant research work that are current and valid.

Very impressive work OP, taking out time to put up a concise and straight to the point answer for all those who have been making secret inquiries on how they could learn more about Blockchain and be better at bitcoins. This is a valuable topic that will always be referenced to both now and in the future. However I noticed the list is for online courses, how about those who like offline courses, any recommendations or pointers to where or how one can enjoy a scholarship to study more about Blockchain and the technology behind it?

Thanks to the suggestions of @mk4 and @bitmover, I have updated the list. I added the two courses which I found on Saylor Academy as suggested by @mk4  and three(3) certification courses which I found  on CryptoCurrency Certification Consortium (C4) suggested by @bitmover.

Probably consider the free courses on Saylor’s website (something something Saylor academy or whatever) as well. Haven’t taken them personally but I’ve heard good things about it.

I believe you are missing an important one, https://cryptoconsortium.org/

Andreas Antonopolous is on the team members (https://cryptoconsortium.org/team/) which makes this very interesting.

Cryptoconsortium also offers certification for blockchain professionals. I was certified once, but it only lasts for 2 years.
You have to study and make an exam. If you do pass the test, you get the certification
Certified Bitcoin Professional (CBP) is the main one.

How does Bitcoin work? Why is Bitcoin called a "cryptocurrency"? What cryptography does it use? How is security maintained in a system with no central authority? This course will answer these and many more questions. In this course, you will learn the building blocks that make up the open, decentralized system that is Bitcoin.
We'll start by diving into the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin and walk through how these tools are used to keep the system secure and running. This course is designed for students with a technical background, including some coding experience. Many of the examples and exercises will require some familiarity with coding to follow along.

When you finish this course, you'll be able to differentiate between public and private keys and understand how they are used in Bitcoin transactions, calculate the hash of a piece of data and explain why hashing is used in Bitcoin's Proof-of-Work consensus protocol, list the functions of a wallet, describe the utility of nodes on the network, and more. You'll have the foundations necessary for understanding, working with, and building on Bitcoin and other open cryptocurrency systems.

Interesting collection.
Is this something you plan to update in the future by adding new courses or removing those that are no longer available or accepting new participants?  
Yes, I do.

I think the "About the Course" columns of the table could have been wider. They seem to make the OP unnecessarily long the way they are structured right now. You also have a fourth column in the table that remains completely empty of any content. Selecting a different table layout would make it more visually attractive.

I'm sorry. I'm really new to this. Thank you for the pointer. I just figured it out.

In this guide, I've tried to put together some of the most recommended Bitcoin and blockchain online courses. This library was compiled based on the recommendations of news and educational resources dedicated to cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. All courses are presented with links to EdX, Coursera and FutureLearn. I am aware that there are lots of online platforms but I picked the aforementioned three platforms  because 1)of the quality of the course contents. They are offered by top universities all over the world. 2) they contain courses on Bitcoin and blockchain. The links at the time of the creation of the guide are working and do not contain referral codes.

The courses are free but you will have to pay to receive a degree. If you cannot not afford the fee, you can apply for financial aid.   Here's is a financial aid template that I always use that works for me

I have provided a short description about each courses which are taken from EdX, Coursera, and FutureLearn. At the time of this writing, all courses are available.

I did not include Udemy because anybody can create his own course. Which means quality of courses vary a lot. Another reason is that you won’t get a degree.

If you find a error, please let me know about it. Also in this guide, you can add your favorite Bitcoin and blockchain courses that you think are worth taking. Thanks.
