There is an excellent 3 level online course.  It is John Deer's Digitizers Dream Course. 
If you buy Hatch through his website, you get some extra bits and pieces and I think they include the first level of the course. 
Even if paying full price without discounts, the course is well worth the money. 

If you have any of the other software packages tge course covers, I think you pay for sll three levels.
The course covers Embrilliance and Hatch among the 10 different packages.
It is a course about digitising and creating machine friendly designs whichever programme is used and not just which button to press.

I am using 2 related programs from the same company. The editor is called Sew What Pro. The digitizer (which allows you to convert images from the net into stitched patterns) is called Sew Art.  You can download free trial versions of each, that are good for 30 days.  The editor is good for resizing/reorienting images, adding text, etc.

I am still in the trial period, but like these well enough to pay for them, once the trial period ends.  Neither is overly costly.
You can't scare me. I taught high school for 32 years.
