The tech world is all about tech fashion. Buzzwords come and go, new OSs, frameworks and stacks come and go, but sometimes, instead of learning the 'framework of the moment', you would want to learn some completely new fields and skills.
Luckily, this is really easy to do these days.
Udacity, founded by the head of Google X (Google's futuristic project lab), offers plenty of courses, all of them free. From web development to parallel computing, it's all there, neatly packed, with tests, certificates and all.
General Assembly offers video courses, some free and some paid, and focus more on design and entrepreneurship.
10gen, creators of MongoDB, have 3 great courses on database, from programming to scaling and maintenance (Of course by using mongo...)
There are plenty of other resources online - Just pick what you want to learn, and go there.
Spending 2 hours a week expanding your horizons and skills - It's worth it, even if just for the fun and challenge.
