Level 2 Award in Introduction to Python Coding

Have you ever wanted to learn to code? Are you interested in programming and would love to know what software applications are made out of, but have never been sure where to start?

This course is for YOU!

The Introduction to Python Coding course aims to introduce you to the basic concepts of software development, and the power that they have to help shape the digital environments we are constantly surrounded by on a daily basis.

At the end of this course you will be able to write a program, refine it, test it, and see it work. You will learn the rules of a programming language and how to write code to develop a successful program using the Python language.
