Another resource I've found really useful is course.fast.ai - it presents a very practical approach to deep learning in a way that would be particularly familiar to someone who has done any amount of programming.
I had taken the Ng course, which I recommend to get a basic understanding of ideas, but, the fast.ai course enables you to compete in Kaggle competitions in fairly short time.
Just watch the course.fast.ai intro/overview video, and decide from there.
