Python Essentials 1 and 2 Learning Circle

Learn Python and build your programming skills in a supportive group. This learning circle will meet Monday afternoons from September 15 to December 8, 2-3:30pm at the Albion Branch in Toronto. Learning circles are study groups guided by staff for people who want to take a free online course together in a welcoming space. Learners meet weekly and work together through the course materials. Participants are expected to commit to the duration of the course and attend all learning circle sessions.

Python Essentials 1 is the first in a 2-course series that teaches computer programming skills including how to design, develop, and improve computer programs using the Python programming language. The course covers essential programming topics such as data types, variables, control flow, functions, and exceptions.

Python Essentials 2 is the second in a 2-course series that will prepare you for the PCAP – Certified Associate in Python Programming certification exam at Pearson VUE. This intermediate-level course covers advanced aspects of Python programming, including modules, packages, exceptions, file processing and object-oriented programming (OOP).
