I have taught myself some coding from crystal reports, excel vba and winbatch but I would like to learn more. I work 2 jobs and have kids with medical problems. I don't have time to go to a class. What are your suggestions? Thank you in advance.

I'd say it depends on what kind of development you want get into. If C, C++, Java... Arduino is a great place to start. It's visual and you get to see your code work in the physical world through LEDs, Survos, etc.

Depends on where your heading with your education. If you're heading into web-based technologies I'd suggest codecademy. It's online, it has an easy ability to start and stop based on a dynamic schedule. It has everything from basic HTML/CSS to Ruby on Rails, and AngularJs. But maybe you want to do server related scripting? It has Python and command line instructions. But if you want to be a Powershell ninja you'll need to go somewhere else. Like I said it depends on where you want to go but codecademy is a good starting point.

Microsoft offers an incredible number of free courses through their Microsoft Virtual Academy. Some of the code-learning ones are here:

I have completed (and can highly recommend) Bob Tabor's courses, and am now starting on the Python ones.
