What is the best way to learn Siemens NX 12.0 or latest version?

Dear friends,

As if Creo is the target, then I know PTC university is the best one stop for all the PTC product courses and for all the version. For which you will require subscription or license, a real one for sure. I luckily got one.
And for Catia too, dasault's learning center is the best option, which unfortunately I have left in the middle of training, as i am to hell biased with creo.
For Solidworks (2017, i don't known about later versions) if you are already familiar with any other cad software then help document is the best source to learn.
But I would like to know if anyone has gone through Siemens NX training from siemens website or any other best possible course, that is job oriented.
Most of the institutes will teach basics and leave out the real training that is required to do job without any support. And it would be like new earth in galaxy when you enter the high work flow job and you are stuck with some problem and no one to help you.
Let us know your experience.

Thank you all in advance.

'Most' of the videos on YouTube and such are horrible in terms of teaching anyone how to model for industry. In a 'job', you're probably going to build lots of master models, master assemblies and the like, modeled such that you can drive for changes in various products. In other words, you are working with lots of 'similar but slightly different' products, especially if you deal with families of components like I do.

I honestly don't know why anything other than top-down is taught anymore. Trying to push people away from bottom up is harder than teaching top-down from the start.

I could put some things together and have considered it, but it's a lot of work and I'd need to know that there is some interest there before doing it. Wouldn't be a free thing, but would be fashioned completely around on-the-job design practices.
