As to what particular course is suitable for yourself, that depends entirely on what you wish to secure the requisite licence and ratings for.

If it is your wish to rent out a single piston engine aircraft from a flying club to fly solo for a couple of hours as a weekend hobby, then a PPL course is what you need to undertake to secure a Private Pilot's Licence and Rating.

If it is your wish to begin a career as a commercial pilot in the air freight or airlines industry, then a CPL/IR course which seamlessly integrates a Frozen ATPL course is what you need to undertake to secure a Commercial Pilot Licence with Instrument Rating and a Frozen Airlines Transport Pilot Licence.

If it is your wish to begin a career as an assistant flight instructor in a flight training establishment or a flying club and work your way on up from there to a full fledged flight instructor, then a CPL/IR course and thereafter an AFI course is what your need to undertake to secure a Commercial Pilot Licence with Instrument Rating and an Assistant Flying Instructor Rating.
