I played a ton of Ck2 and am just starting Ck3 - One of the things you needed to do in ck2 was to get your courtiers married, and then to educate all the children in your kingdom. Do you still have to do those two things in ck3?

Not sure what you mean by "need" to, but yes it is still possible to do all of these things. Unfortunately, it's impossible to create an alert for your courtier's children though, so you have to just keep checking on your court every year or two.
OK, I'll set guardians for all the children and check every few years and get wives for my knights...
Now how about spending money? Is it better to build new holdings or buildings? Generally in ck2 I prefered to build cities, at least on my ocean front counties, for the cities bonuses once my economy got going. Is it the same here or are buildings a better option? Playing as the King of Leon I see upgrade hill farms for $200 and get $.5 tax/month or build a new holding for $400 which seems a better deal.

If you want money, new buildings. New holdings are only worth it economically if they're castles, and you claim them, and you build buildings in them.
The only exception is holdings with Mines; e.g. the three undeveloped mine holdings in Mali. Those you want to build holdings on as soon as possible.

Is there any way of filtering or sorting your Court members (by age, skills etc.)?
Is there a way to find the sex of characters when you click on them? I was pondering how to determine the sex of a "Munio" in my court and yes I could find out he was male by trying to setup a marriage for him, but I don't want to have to do that each time a person with a non-obvious name shows up.
There is no universally convenient way to tell a character's sex from their own character sheet, but there's a constellation of methods that cover most of the relevant space.
- Gay characters have a sex-specific orientation icon (two overlapping blue mars icons for men, two overlapping pink venus icons for women)
- Titled characters usually have sex-specific forms of their title. (I'm sure there are exceptions.)
- Many outfits are easily recognized as being M or F.
- Many (but by no means all) names can be spotted as M or F just by looking at the character's culture and the way the ending is spelled, even if you don't recognize the name itself.
- The tooltip for a character on their portrait icon on a sibling, (grand)parent, or (grand)child's character sheet will say (grand)son/daughter, brother/sister, (grand)father/mother.

Is there a way to convert fellow vassals or your liege to your religion or culture?
Without modding, no. Another setting from CK2 that was dropped from CK3.
My empire title has the Scandinavian Elective succession. I want to nominate my son but he is not appearing as a candidate, how can I make sure he inherits? I thought he wasn't showing up because he's also my grandson, but my other son-grandson appeared as a candidate after he was landed. (He disappeared after a while though, not sure what's going on)
Do you get more prestige from romancing someone of a higher rank, e.g. the wife of a king vs. the wife of a count? From what I've seen this seems to be the case, but I'm not sure.

This is correct. A target which is not a ruler themselves awards Prestige like their liege, if they are married to or Close Family of that liege.
Note that if they are rulers themselves then they give Prestige accordingly. So the wife of the Byzantine emperor gives Prestige like an emperor/empress if she is unlanded, but if she happens to hold a count title she only gives Prestige like a count.

How does title inheritance skipping generations work? Under confederate partition I'm seeing a great-grandson* have priority over a son.

if your eldest son is dead, his eldest son takes his place in the inheritance chain. So, your 1st son's 1st son's 1st son will be your player heir, and then your 2nd son (or his descendants) gets the next share of the partition, etc.
There are innovations in each era which increase the size of your MaA regiments, specifically: Mustering Grounds, Household Soldiers, Men-at-Arms, and Standing Armies. They also increase the number of regiments you can have.
