While I'm not sure if there are any really good beginner books for bioinformatics or genetics, this book is absolutely incredible for learning how to use R and working with applied statistics: Book
For Linux: The Linux Command Line: A Complete Introduction
For Python: Automate the Boring Stuff with Python: Practical Programming for Total Beginners
For R: The Book of R: A First Course in Programming and Statistics
These are all from No Starch Press, and I really like how they all function as complete introductions to their subjects. I've tried a number of programming books, but these have remained my go-to books for recommendations due to how well they build up basic principals for each concept or language. That said, I feel as though The Book of R is the weakest of the three, and maybe look into other recommendations for R if you get more replies.
EDIT:
Just realized that you asked for courses, not sources, my bad. Either way, I do encourage you to consider the above as alternatives to learning these concepts from online courses, as I've found them to be just as good if not better than some online courses I've seen.
