Tired of being bad at math and looking to enroll in online math classes for credit

Mostly yes, but I am considering UT Austin's new MSAI program (https://cdso.utexas.edu/msai) afterwards, so taking college math classes which provide a transcript would let me pursue that option if I decide on that. Or maybe I'll pursue WGU's MSCIA, MSITM, or some other online graduate program afterwards.

Long story short, I was stuck at a job after college and felt I wasn't qualified for other jobs given my lack of in-demand skills. I don't want to ever experience that again, so my current plan is to engage in constant self-improvement and learning. It also helps me not feel stagnant and just wasting my life away I guess?

Math has always been my greatest weakness, so I figure I'll spend a year or so between finishing up OMSCS and starting something new to get my math up to the level I want it to be. I've been using YouTube and other resources to learn linear algebra, but sometimes it's difficult to find the discipline and motivation necessary when things get difficult. A paid college course would be a way to force myself to take it seriously while also providing the transcript necessary if I do pursue MSAI later.

Right now it seems Oakton College is the best option given they offer the classes I want at an affordable price, but I'll continue looking and hold off until I'm more certain in what path to follow.
