Course Information
The Python 101 course is a practical, instructor-led online training designed to give beginners a strong and confident start in the world of programming. Guided by experienced trainers, this course serves as the ideal first step toward earning the PCEP™ – Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer (PCEP-30-02) certification. Upon completing the training, each participant receives a complimentary PCEP Exam + Retake voucher and a set of two practice tests, ensuring a smooth and supported path to certification success.
Built specifically for beginners and aspiring Python developers, the course focuses on the essential skills required to write, run, and debug basic Python programs. Through interactive live sessions, demonstrations, hands-on coding exercises, and guided practice, participants learn to understand how Python works and how to apply core programming concepts effectively.
Our instructor-led approach makes learning clear, structured, and encouraging. Even participants with no prior programming background will quickly gain the confidence to write their own code and tackle common programming challenges. By the end of the course, learners are well-prepared to continue their Python education and explore early-career opportunities in software development, testing, data processing, system support, and related technical fields.
