A good starting point would be to check out Andrew Kramer's After Effects Basic Training.
http://www.videocopilot.net/basic/index.html
He goes over the basics in AE from the beginning, and after you start gaining some understanding he has a bunch of free tutorials as well as products that work great for doing graphics and visual effects in AE.
Plus, the After Effects Basic Training is free. Can't beat that!
