## Overview

In this introductory class, you’ll learn Python, a powerful and widely used programming language. Python is an excellent language for beginners because it is easy to learn while remaining extremely versatile. It can be used to build software, analyze data, and develop modern websites.

In this one-day, hands-on course, you’ll start with the fundamentals of Python to build confidence with programming logic. You will explore data types, conditional statements, loops, functions, and an introduction to object-oriented programming (OOP). You’ll also work on projects that demonstrate how Python is used for web development and data science.

This beginner-friendly course is ideal for anyone with little to no programming experience. After completing this class, you can continue your training with a Python Bootcamp or a Data Science Certificate program.
