Once you've got some Coursera, etc. skills under your belt, look for opportunities that align with your knowledge and future career aspirations.
The other way to "get experience" would be to work on random projects of your own, building up a portfolio as you go. That will probably take at least as much work, if not more, than volunteering. You also won't be able to references/letters of recommendation or "secret" job leads by working solely on your personal portfolio.
A combination of both is probably helpful.
