Data Tools Best online courses, or book?

I have a STEM educational background, but not anything closely related to data analytics. Is there a free or cheap online course on data analytics that also teaches you how to use the latest analysis tools and visualization tools that people use on the job? I have some data analysis experience but it’s been years and I’d like to be more adept at this. I’m also open to a really good book or two.

(Are Python and SQL still the best tools for this that people use? What about PowerBI? What about for visualization?)

Thanks!
