codecademy is good for the very basics of programming. Some lessons are better than others on that site. They don't have a complete list of languages either so you're limited to what they currently have available.

Linda.com is something I'm using now (it's membership based so unless you go to school that is partnered with linda, you have to pay a fee to use their tutorials). Linda's really useful in the sense that the courses are lecture based.

Read up on different languages, decide what you're interested in (software, internet, database, etc). Buy some books. Do some research. Make some projects (probably the most important thing you can do if you want a career as a programmer).

So spend months on it. Long term projects are a lot better than short term projects. They show employers that you have an interest and passion in what you're doing.

>is there any list of projects that can be done based of various levels of proficiency?
Not really sure how good this is, haven't really looked into any of the projects myself. Most of these projects would require more of an intermediate - advanced level of understanding of how to code so this shouldn't be your starting place but if you wan't to look into them, go ahead.

Actually, some of these are really easy.
>FizzBuzz
>Rock Paper Scissors

They can be done by beginners pretty easily.
