Apologies first English is not my first language.

I have a CS degree, and I've done a few ERC20 codes out of interest.

I also have BASIC knowledge of cryptocurrency.

I want to build platform like ethereum, or EOS (I know the latter hasn't made one yet).

Right now I have no real knolwedge (except for things you can find easily on google).

I really want to learn, but I don't know how.

I live in Korea and I can't seem to find a good course here. Could anyone recommend a course?

It can cost $$$. I found one on https://blockgeeks.com/pick-your-plan/ but don't know if it's worth the money.

I would really appreciate a reply. Thank you very much.

you are right, no need to pay for information when you can find many things online. Heck even if you don't understand something or have question can post it here on forum and there are many people that will answer if they see your post and know the answer.

Here is great book written by Andreas M. Antonopoulos and many others, it is well known within the space and you can read it through github for free: https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook

Here are some free courses:

Blockchain for Business - An Introduction to Hyperledger Technologies : https://www.edx.org/course/blockchain-business-introduction-linuxfoundationx-lfs171x

IBM Blockchain Foundation for Developers : https://www.coursera.org/learn/ibm-blockchain-essentials-for-developers

Other than this you can read through whitepapers of many coins to understand the idea behind them and expand your knowledge.

Building your own crypto requires a lot of deduction and before you start just ask yourself if you can handle to be the dev of some coins and if you can get it noticed by others- of course it is possible but it ain't an easy job.

There is a free course by Berkeley for developers, with videos and labs:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5sgoRfoSp3jeX4DEqKLwKg/videos

Haven't found a website for current spring version, but there's a fall 2017 website - https://blockchain.berkeley.edu/decal/fa17/dev/ - with slides, readings, homeworks.

They also have a course for everyone, not just developers, with all videos available on youtube: https://blockchain.berkeley.edu/decal/fa17/fund/

There's a free MOOC from UNIC, University of Nicosia, by Andreas M. Antonopoulos: https://digitalcurrency.unic.ac.cy

There's an old course on Coursera from Princeton University, Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies
: https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency

There is a course in Russian language about fundamentals: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAKVZKVgINgKAwmAeyojMaw/videos

There's an ongoing course from MIT, but only with slides: https://github.com/mit-dci/mas.s62

Andreas M. Antonopoulos has currently also a work-in-progress book about Ethereum:

There is a really good course offered by IBM Developer Works (https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/) for beginners in the field of blockchain and cryptocurrency and also for those who want to explore the subject more deeply. Users will get acquainted with the basics of this system, as well as the way it is used in companies Hyperledger Fabric and IBM. Classes are free and the program is rather short. This is an excellent basic lesson for new developers and business partners who want to better understand what blockchain is. Also, the option is great for very busy people. Individual lessons are short-lived, which allows them to be included in almost any schedule.

CryptoDoggies is a course I worked on to help teach ERC721 token implementations https://www.udemy.com/cryptodoggies

However this is Ethereum, but still teaches the blockchain principals

Try Blockchain at Berkeley, they run a class for developers at Berkeley, chances are they have it online. Also you have to have knowledge of how networks work, so this is another importnant topic to cover
