You can find a lot of information related to the Bitcoin Wiki https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Category:Technical
Just take a look, I think it is going to be useful for you.

I've found this page with some courses as well: https://medium.com/@a2lyab/top-5-free-online-blockchain-course-to-break-into-the-industry-today-2a96d1592322
After a quick view it seems interesting, but please notice I haven't try any of these courses, so if you make one, share your thoughts (i've been out of time recently with so many work pendant in my desk).

I hope it helps!!

Depends on what department you want to be on.

Bitcoin was written in C++ whereas Ethereum was written in Solidity. Might want to consult Google for some online courses if you're interested.

I have enrolled for an online course at coursera.org. This course is created by Princeton University and the lectures are given by Arvind Narayanan (Princeton University) and others. I am a super noob when it comes to coding or anything related to development, but the course seems very comprehensive and interesting even for me with limited knowledge.

you can check out the link (https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency) here to get all details about it and join if you wish.

Goodluck.

Depends what do you mean by blockchain developer. Implementing the basic principles behind blockchain shouldn't be hard to learn, for instance there is this article from hackernoon which explains pretty well about how you will code blockchain structure with python: https://hackernoon.com/learn-blockchains-by-building-one-117428612f46

If you know HTML, CSS, JS and want to do some front-end development for some blockchain projects you can start to learn things such as SASS, jQuery, AngularJS....

Or you are type of guy who wants to code with existing open blockchain such as NEO, ETHEREUM and others? Then head over there and try to pick free information from documentations, can even ask community members there if you have any questions, find any difficualties.
