Welcome! My name's Adrian and I'm a professional Software Developer. If you've never written code before and want to try programming for yourself, then you've just found an excellent course for that!
According to statistics, Python is in the top 3 programming languages all around the world. It is much easier and quicker to learn that most other languages. At the same time, it's extremely popular among software developers, data analysts and other IT professions. All of this makes it an excellent choice for your first programming language.
COURSE OVERVIEW
In this course, you'll learn the fundamentals of Python 3 and you'll get prepared for the Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer exam (PCEP). You don't need any programming experience. I'll show you how to install Python and start writing code from scratch. We'll then delve straight into the code together. You'll aso have a chance to create your own programs.
This course has 5 main modules, each one focusing on a different exam block. At the end of each module, you'll have a chance to solve an exam quiz to check your skills.
This course also comes with a mock PCEP exam at the very end. It will have the same format as your actual exam, with the same passing grade and time limit. It will show you what kinds of questions you can expect.

Wonderful class! Students like me got to prep all the exercise tools ahead of time like Jupyter and Spyder in Anaconda. Put in at least 2X time to practice along with instructor during lecture.

Coding Exercises were great to solidify learned concepts, explanations and examples were clear and easy to follow for beginners. I finished this course feeling prepared for the PCEP exam!

I will rate you 5 stars but please check these notes: 1)The performance exercises are frustrating because the auto-checker often marks answers wrong for very small issues, such as a missing space. 2)The pronunciation in the audio sections was also difficult for me to understand. 3) Most importantly, the mock test seems to behave strangely — I selected the correct answers, but the results page showed that some of my answers were changed to incorrect ones.

Good quality content for an entry-level exam , lessons are kept short and sweet , but enough to get you to dive deeper in certain areas as you get ready for the exam itself.
