This is a self-paced course that gently introduces programming to new programmers over a 6 week period. There are plenty of opportunities to practice what you learn and ask questions in a safe place. Furthermore, surprise yourself by building a substantial project.

Each week there are some optional online interactive “lab” sessions for Q&A and problem solving. The 5 lab sessions will be live, but more may be scheduled with our trainers at different times or in-person depending on your needs.

After completing this course, you will be able to:

• Understand some fundamental programming concepts
• Understand Python programs written by your colleagues
• Make useful changes to existing Python programs
• Write new, useful Python programs
• Take more advanced Python courses
