Stanford University is hosting a free online course in cryptography - start date 12th March.
Looks quite interesting - in fact so interesting that I've actually signed up.
For details see: https://www.coursera.org/crypto/auth/welcome

Looks really interesting, but perhaps a bit tough for me as both my maths and programming skills are poor, let me know how it goes though!!!

The whole range of subjects at Coursera looks good: https://www.coursera.org/landing/hub.php
The online materials for the crypto course seem very comprehensive - videos, presentations, assignments, problems, etc. Its all downloadable, so I see no reason why they can't be shared around.
Francis, you might be interested in seeing the materials on the Natural Language Processing course. May be worth signing up just for them (its all free). https://www.coursera.org/nlp/auth/welcome

That does sound really good; if I had a little more time I'd like to take it.
If you like the course then perhaps you could give us a talk on what you will have learned at some stage :)
