proper foundation is well worth the money (note that the OP apparently
has as well). And learning on the job does not mean that you do not
learn it properly. You should have quoted the whole sentence: "For me
often learning on a job is more effective - but you need an employer who
is ready to provide the resources (IT and time)." The advantage is
motivation: if I have a real problem to solve it's easier for me to come
up with a proper solution than with training examples which often are
very simplistic and sometimes not even realistic.
