You could say so. Over the years I paied for a couple of courses that would include the classroom lecture at some known universities and did the course homework as well. Some of the companyes I worked for also sent me to ~1-week courses when I asked if I can improve on some topics.
While I had an influence on the general topic of the course I ended up discovering various things that I wouldn't have expected. I did not equally like all professors, but I felt it was better than reading a text.
I wouldn't do this for "<insert latest language/library here>", but there are many complex interesting topics out there.
