Is it a whole 100 hours block without fragmentation, or any 100 hours that you can allocate?

I assume the first case, i.e. you have about 4 days to learn something. I'd recommend taking up some paid, intensive training as most such trainings take about 3-5 days and you can maximize the learning during the 4 days of timeframe.

I mean the latter.

Oh I see. I guess it depends on how big one chunk is then. I'd still vote for paid training if you get big chunks. If only smaller chunks are available, hmmm, it's difficult to say. Maybe prepare for a certificate?
