Has anyone taken a private equity crash course?

These look intriguing, but they're a big investment.  Wondering if anyone has experience and can share the takeaways and thoughts on the value?  For example:

I haven't taken a course, but I've been in/adjacent to PE at points through my career. I see you're in Bellevue, I'd be happy to connect if you're interested.

I’d try your Alma mater, sometimes they have simple free versions (clubs groups etc) or hire a student intern as they will get free access to stuff.
