Any advice on which platforms are best for learning data science/ML? I'm looking for a platform through which both I can develop my intermediate ML skills and my less experienced teammates can learn data analytics from the ground up. Particularly interested in any thoughts on Codeacademy and Dataquest.

DataCamp

Dataquest was extremely basic when I looked 2 years ago. CodeAcademy is better for basic learning but not going to get the advanced DS/ML skills.

What about DataCamp v udemy? Pros and cons?

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?
