      Official Zabbix courses are pretty good (in my opinion) - link
      You can skip User and go straight for Zabbix Certified Specialist (ZSC). Tho if you do - I would advise to not take the test straight after courses but ask for delay by week or two (not sure what max time delay they giving) to practice more with what they teach you.

      Outside of that I honestly not sure which are good and which are not. At your level probably any online course would be a good start.
      You can also just use Documentation and try to solve some "imaginary" tasks of creating new monitorings from scratch, starting with something super simple and increasing the complexity

        Basically, try to answer the questions people ask in forum... in many cases there is enough data to try to replicate it on your own instance.. (Those are Good Questions). The ones like "This not work, help!..." and nothing added... I just skip those, tired of asking for details..

          Sometimes issues like monitoring (zabbix) are a small element of the puzzle and that's why people can ask some basic question that they're stuck on. Some problems also result from not understanding documentation and even the English language... I'm not a native speaker and sometimes I ask a question on the forum, someone replies in other words and I understand . I also turn to the community, if I am able to solve a problem I will reply at the same time, even though I do not have much time in my life (children etc.) because this is how it work in IT stuff. Some people think it's trolling, but people often get frustrated when they get stuck on something simple. I personally spent about 3 days with these passive/active agents and I wasn't able to get through it on my own, and looking at what you have to do to solve it, I certainly wouldn't have figured it out myself, without the help of people from the forum like ISiroshtan.

        I agree. It's needlessly complex by default. There may be some who need this complexity, but for the 99%, simply deciding at agent-level whether it is active or passive, is enough.
