Penn State has an online Open Web Mapping Class for free using open source software. The course materials are available at: https://www.e-education.psu.edu/geog585/ through a creative commons license. You can also take the paid version of the online course for credit. Coursework includes QGIS, GDAL, OGR, GeoServer, TileMill, Openlayers, and OpenStreetMap. Penn State also has several map-related classes on Coursera.

Coursera has at least six relevant classes to GIS, GPS, and more during this upcoming fall 2014 and winter 2015 sessions. Please note some of the courses do offer different tracts that range from basic to technical in difficulty. This fall and winter there are exciting course offerings!
