I guess it depends on the programme.
I have seen one that teaches French.
I think it is quite good.
So, if it's offered by a reputable company, I think it would be useful.

There used to be a company called "Living Language" that I thought had a good Russian course.
Berlitz is a famous teacher of language.
I cannot recommend any specific program to teach Englsih because I haven't used one.

The problem is that there is no alphabet to use to learn to write Cantonese so you can be understood by native Cantonese speakers. You have to learn the characters, and that requires a lot of memorization. I'm sure there are sites you can use for that.
