Reply to comment by fuscarili in [D] I'm at a crossroads: Bayesian methods VS Reinforcement Learning, which to choose? by fuscarili

Yeah, this would be a course in RL, most likely using RL bible as main reference textbook. Agree with the other comment, these lectures are all available online.

What I found valuable in attending a course in person was the prof, lots of insights and intuitions explained in person/office hours was the most valuable part for me. While I was taking the RL course in person, I also referenced online lectures and notes.

In terms of data science interviews and jobs, Bayesian would be more useful, at least more than RL unless you found yourself in robotics or some very niche industry.

You're right in that, it depends a lot on the teacher and also if the student does his part of the job by self-studying and then use the teacher to clarify all the doubts that he may have come up with.
