You may not have time to attend courses but through open learning you can
learn and get credits towards a degree at the same time. I did elementary
pascal through open learning last semester 1995. It was provided by the
Central Queensland University in Rockhampton. 

I found it a worthwhile experience which demistified programming somewhat.
I do not claim to be an expert but I did write a 300 line program with
menu selections and it even worked. I am currently enrolled in a 
Bachelor of Business degree at QUT majoring in accounting and I got a
credit for this subject as an elective.

Hope this is a helps, I found it a worthwhile option.
