There are none. It requires work, dedication and practice.
Just like everything else in life worth doing...

I agree but here are some helful hints that may make it easier
FOR MANY -- studying EVERY day for 15 to 30 minutes is successful. Leaving
long periods between study sessions is usually counter-productive. Studying
for long periods at a session - frazzles many a brain.

One long time code instructor advises; "Most people's problems with the code
stem from trying to learn it too fast without sufficient drilling before
they move on to each new letter. The average person needs about 30 hours of
study and practice on the code to hit 5 wpm. Now this is an average. Some
will take longer and some will take less." So a half hour in the morning, a
half hour in the evening and in a month -- you should have it.

Another advises: Whatever method you use, try to *hear* the code directly as
a letter. IOW, don't try to translate the sound into dot-dash and translate
that into A, just hear the dot-dash and think A. Easier said than done, but
when you master it your receiving speed will increase dramatically.

COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND COURSES - There are many available -- try them out --
choose the one that works the best for you. Remember that the one that works
for your buddy or elmer may or may not be the best for you.
