I'm a believer that no matter your profession, having the ability to code will help you. This is especially true in the business, scientific, research, statistics and education fields.
Google has now compiled their own internal courseware for their engineers and made them public. The code courses are geared towards C++, Java, Python and Go. So far, I've seen lots of video and real world examples on par with University level instruction. The format is exactly like a proctored lecture session.
Here is a list of courses and innovative resources to help CS students, faculty, and instructors. These are examples of the training Google engineers use to learn new skills.
