Course overview
This course is designed for people working in industry or who have some knowledge of Python. Python is a free, approachable powerful programming language for novices and professionals to use for anything from automating simple repetitive tasks, to big data processing and machine learning.
You undertake practical problem solving using the Python programming language, building up programming fundamentals and gaining insight into opportunities that open up once you’re able to write your own computer programmes.
You start coding straight away, and have everything you need to take your learning further, whether at work or independently. From project managers to administrative professionals to veterans of other programming languages and teachers teaching coding, Python has something to offer you.
You need access to a PC or laptop, internet, audio headset and Python software, which is downloadable from the University once you register.
