It depends what camera you have as well. If you only have a point and shoot there isn't much point going on a course or reading about aperture size, shutter speed etc (though it might be useful in the future), though one on basic skills such as shot composition, lighting, ISO etc would be good.
There's a gazillion web sites on photography skills, tips and tricks, and a few of them are actually quite good. Google away!
