Drebb, Fantasy Grounds College is helpful for people who want to just be players, also. They support multiple games (I've had classes in Starfinder, D&D 5E, Savage Worlds, Call of Cthulhu). You may see more things involving D&D but a lot of what you learn in those can be applied to other systems, also. Especially if it is centered around how to use things like Combat, creating characters, etc.
As for rules familiarity, I do not think it is necessary. There are introductory adventures. I always let people know my experience with FG (some) and a ruleset (D&D 5E: a little).
Everyone has been very helpful, also. I've seen people have questions and they get answers quickly via text chat or even via impromptu voice chats.

Yes, as one of our members (TY @Triopticon) has stated. We teach both players and DM's. We also have seminars, webcasts, giveaways, etc. We also offer a few one shots to get some practice before you move onto the larger world of gaming! Welcome back fellow gamer, you are welcome to return to the land of rolling dice (virtual) and meeting like minded people.

I just want to find a group thats in the evening (my time((eastern time)). lol. Or a session on the weekends in the evening.

I feel your pain. There is a DM shortage for sure, all platforms. I am trying to train a Cadre of gamers to use Fantasy Grounds, especially from the DM Game master standpoint to help alleviate this issue, one group at a time. For the rest of this week until the first we are holding a spring break free for all in FG College. We have had a few games per day running since Saturday. These are mainly for practice and DMs new to the concept. Rob and I made a show about the lack of games. We'll, we called it a nice title, but the real title was supporting be, I can't find a f*ck*n game! We have a video big weekly series entitled All Things Fantasy Grounds, and that was a couple episodes ago... https://youtu.be/TX2YavIi7TE
