edX
edX carries university and institute material: courses from Wharton, IIM Bangalore, and the New York Institute of Finance, including professional certificate programmes in trading and investing. Audit access is free for a limited window, verified certificates typically run from about 50 to a few hundred dollars depending on the provider, and multi course programmes cost more.
Content sits a step above casual YouTube level, with real assignments and finance vocabulary that assumes you will look things up. That makes it strong for students, career changers and anyone who wants a credential on a CV. Pure hobby investors who only want to open a brokerage account and buy an index fund will find several modules heavier than the task requires.
