Are live sound courses worth it? Any recommendations?

As the bassist in our band, I obviously play the bass....AND do the promotion, make the posters/banners, source/store/carry/maintain/set up/control the PA and make the coffee.

I like to think we have a decent FOH sound, but we occasionally play venues where they have a big analogue desk and a bunch of outgear that confuses the hell out of me.

We use a Presonus digital desk and it's very straight forward, I've even started recording our gigs, but I'd like to know how work the analogue stuff and get a better idea of house to work our gear, with a view to possibly mixing/recording other bands around here.

Are the courses you can find advertised around the interwebs any good or should I just keep learning on the job as I go?

I can't afford the time or money to go to, say SAE, or other University courses, but there are more independent trainers around which offer single day to 2 week courses for £280 - £3000...

Anyone completed one and have an opinion?

Ta,
Ben
