How to choose.
Prompting basics take a few hours to learn, so a short course is enough for most people. Pick one that uses the model you work with, since prompts tuned for one model family are not always best for another.
If you build products, move on quickly to structured output, tool use, and evaluation. Those skills keep prompts working when the model or the input changes.
