I like these workshops from Packt:

Sometimes they move a little fast but overall good amount of content.

the first one is pretty good and the 2nd should be too(it's just a newer version of it afaik)
For beginners I would recommend The Java Tutorials by Oracle (for Java 8) which can be found here [Only registered and activated users can see links.

For people with intermediate experience I would suggest buying a more technical book like Effective Java, familiarising yourself with the basics of CS concepts such as algorithms (but at this stage without implementing said structures yourself) and consulting official documentation (API, Specs) to discover more on how the language works.
For experts or advanced students consult the JVM spec, along with a book dedicated to advanced CS subjects (algorithmic complexity, data structures, computational complexity e.g halting problem, mathematical foundations).
If you are willing to spend a couple of bucks, you could buy a course off of Udemy. Some of them are discounted right now.
