Where do I start learning?

I took a break from studying for several months but now am anxious to get back on the QUICKEST path to honing my skills to get a JOB as WebDeveloper with PHP. Can you suggest where I should start up again, and what path to take?

I am currently in the same boat. I am starting with the beginner PHP course and wordpress tracks. I think this will be the fastest way to start getting some freelance gigs. Let me know if you need any help or want to collaborate.

It depends on where you left off.

But since your focus is PHP, it might make sense to do both of these tracks, in order:

Thanks Steven. I also need to refresh/relearn my basic Web page / CSS skills. Is there a good module for that?
