Hello All, my young brother wants to build our career as a Arduino developer but I don't have enough knowledge about this programming language. Can anyone suggest me Arduino is a good career, If yes then suggest me some online courses where my brother takes a reference or start learning about arduino.

No.

Become a toolmaker or plumber or electrician or carpenter or cabinet maker or boilermaker or a machine operator.

There will always be plumbing to install repair upgrade.
There will always be electrical systems to install repair upgrade.
There will always be houses buildings that need building repairing or renovating.
People need kitchens, places to put things and shops need fittings.
Metals need welding, can't bring a robot on site to weld in a corner upside down 70m in the air.
Humans will always need to move earth.
And for tool makers, they are just wizards.

To my case Arduino was a entrance gate.
Using it i build up knowledge about sensors, lcd, bcd, motor, driver, mechanical, digital, analog etc for low cost.
Arduino is prototype plataform IMO.
You need to learn C/C++
Good start pount to learn C

Here isnt the proper place to talk about it, you need to arduino forum at least.
How you come here? Do you use google?

Too many "Arduino Experts" have little to no knowledge of electronics. For some people it seems to be the only tool in their toolbox.
I even read of a person using a arduino to fault find instead of a multimeter and being led up a garden path. Which I find really funny cos here in Oz a really cheap multimeter can cost less than a Arduino board.

And don't get me started on the amount of people who had trouble hooking up a power supply to a surplus SBC, marketed as the Atomic Pi, when there was very very clear instructions on the voltage & Amperage and when to connect the power.

The future of Arduino maybe good, but for those that use it as their only tool, it's a bleak future.

I agree with this post. Too many young people with brains do not consider trades to be viable. I my self am a boilermaker. People who have a bit of smarts about them can really excel in these areas and make a considerable amount of money if that is your goal. Also there is a lot of possibilities for combining new technologies with traditional trades like welding, plumbing, electrical and such.

People like to look down on the men that do the dirty jobs. Its funny because a lot of those men have large bank accounts compared to the white collar guys working in sales. Not always but for the smart ones yes. I know lots of builders, electricians, plumbers and boilermakers that own their own homes at a relatively young age.

In Sydney there was a big whinge from "office workers" once they found out how much Traffic Controllers were getting paid for "just standing on their", whilst they were putting in a Light Rail System.........As a TC I'd challenge one of those whiners to pull a 12 shift and keep a sharp mind and put up with the abuse, heat, cold & rain. Yeah and sometimes as much as you are supposed to get a 10 minute break every 2 hours, and that doesn't mean sitting down, you are on your feet for 4 to 6 hours at a stretch.
But some cultures see manual labour as a failure. I love it, rather be outside at different sites than stuck in the one office day in & day out.
