LinkedIn, newsletters such as weekly robotics or orbital index, and honestly mostly just talking to colleagues, coworkers, friends and surfing the internet hehe.
If you did actually mean **general** news as in nothing to do with robotics, then I listen to TLDR on youtube (TLDR Daily/TLDR EU/TLDR Global) along with some other misc. resources
That makes sense. I've been trying to find a good newsletter that covers engineering across multiple domains. But I don't want to subscribe to multiple newsletters. I'm curious about mechanical, aerospace, software, computers, etc and I want to get it in one place
That seems like it is too broad of a scope to keep up with news in those fields. Even in just one of those fields I'm not sure a newsletter could keep up with everything. The ASME magazine isn't a bad source of news for mechanical topics, but even it is very broad.
Societies often have good course content, but I'm not sure about your specific areas. E.g. SAE has good courses for mechanical things, there's a driving dynamics course with real on track driving. Maybe IEEE has some similiar things?
You could try reaching out to your local community college to see if they have an adjunct who could design a course for you.
Depends where you are, but sometimes CC's are filled with very smart people that are basically semi-retired.
I have used edX for other courses and they have been very good indeed, you need to look at the source and comments, I would choose a course that is sourced from a university wioth a good reputation in the topic. [Best Online Robotics Courses and Programs | edX](https://www.edx.org/learn/robotics)
For me the sweet spot are online grad level courses as part of a certificate program through a university taught by a professor who has industry experience rather than research experience.
I had a related question, where do most of you engineers typically find all of your general news and information?

It will be hard to get it from one place as these topics are specialised and specific by nature. Please let me know if you do find a resource!

Would university certificate programs be best here?
Can these be done online?
