From marilyn at pythontrainer.com Tue Jan 12 19:25:34 2016 From: marilyn at pythontrainer.com (Marilyn Davis) Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2016 16:25:34 -0800 (PST) Subject: [PyOP] Python Classes At UCSC Extension - Silicon Valley Message-ID: <51815.192.200.144.152.1452644734.squirrel@mail.tigertech.net> Hi Python Enthusiasts, Our next daytime retreat-style "Python for Programmers" class isn't until March 14 - 17. That's a long time to wait: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=1531625&SectionID=5277660 But an online class opens today for early-starters: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=1531625&SectionID=5277658 The class doesn't officially begin until Feb 16 but you can access all the resources, and have my enthusiastic help, starting today. These classes are for programmers who are already well-experienced in some other language. No beginning programmers please, but you can certainly be new to Python. The retreat-style class will be at our lab at UCSC-Extension in Santa Clara, right across the 101 from the Great America sign: If you are a bit rusty at programming, you might be more comfortable in an evening course that meets once a week so you have some time to absorb the concepts. You'll find those: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=1531625&SectionID=5277659 If you are a beginning programmer, please take one of our classes that are designed just for you, and you can take a programmer's class later: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=3576274&SectionID=5277739 ---- All our Python courses are hands-on with short lectures, and lots of relevent exercises, and, we study the solutions after some lab time. Questions are always welcome; discussion and pair-programming are encouraged. Please come, and send students! --- And, the first quarter of the professional course is available for $20 at Udemy.Com! I'm so busy that I can't say when the rest of the course will be there, but I'm working on it, and part ii is close to ready: https://www.udemy.com/pythonic-python-part-i-the-basics/ I hope you find one of these classes useful to your schedule and your taste.
