Learning Chemistry With Softwarechemistry with software?

I'm interested in learning organic chemistry, and am following a text  (Organic Chemistry by Clayden) and an online course. I also have access to ChemBio3D.

I feel as though the way chemistry is taught conventionally is more difficult than it needs to be. Some online courses utilize industry software when teaching things (such as using MatLab in engineering), which makes visualizing and understanding a lot of the theories and concepts taught in books much more inuitiveintuitive, since you can replicate the theory directly into a program.

Does a similar course exist somewhere for chemistry? I'm not talking about the little java applets that are available everywhere that mimic certain reactions or visualize concepts, I mean a course that utilizes a powerful software suite such as ChemBio in order to teach organic chemistry? Something that will teach both organic chemistry at a proper undergrad level and a good piece of industry software at the same time?
