Electronics - for Complete Beginners
Electronics has become important to many fields; communications, automotive, security, defense and consumer electronics, to name just a few. This course will familiarize you with the theory behind various types of electrical and electronic circuitry. It concentrates on practical aspects of the technology, rather than delving into depths of theory that will be of little value in real-world working situations.
The teaching style is conversational one-on-one, the course consisting exclusively of short video presentations. PowerPoint, screen captures, text files, and the like are not used. A PDF version of each session is provided, which you may download and combine as your own searchable resource for future reference. Selected lectures include "Hands-On" labs that will enable you to work with circuits interactively with the optional "ElecticVLab" circuit simulator.
If you are a person who likes to know how things work, and enjoys the challenge of figuring out why not when they don't, the study of electrical engineering technology is sure to offer knowledge and skills that will interest you, and opportunities in the workplace that you will find personally rewarding, and financially attractive.
This course can help you qualify for careers in a variety of entry-level positions, such as electronics technician, service technician, telecommunications technician and engineering technician.
Technology-focused companies and organizations hire employees who understand analog and digital electronics. Your understanding will be complete; comparable to what you might achieve in a more formal learning environment. You will be prepared to seize opportunities that come your way in the future, and ready to go on to further, more narrowly-focused training in whatever related specialty you choose.

So far, I have only watched the videos explaining who the instructor is, and I like him, he seems very nice and a good instructor for me.
Mr. Warner is seems very sincere and not in a rush to teach what is a sometimes difficult subject to learn.
for sharing

digital electronics
One aspect that should be noted is, that this course is based on a 1940-50s curriculum and while it does cover digital electronics, it's that of basic TTL/CMOS chips of the 70ies.
It provices the base for understanding modern electronics, but the focus is very much on analog devices for most of the course - if you're into digital electronics, robotics, arduino etc.
