I very much would recommend UDemy. A bunch of people I work with needed to be
cross-trained to python, and their course "/Complete Python Bootcamp: Go from
zero to hero in Python/" by Jose Portilla. This course came highly recommended
by others who took it, and the instructor's style makes it much easier to stick
with the course than some others I have run into at Coursera or Sitepoint. Even
though I already knew a modicum of python at the time, this course taught me a
lot I didn't know.
Check into the link: https://www.udemy.com/complete-python-bootcamp/
You can look at the reviews of the course, the reviews of the instructor, and
google both because there are reviews on other forums as well. Also check the
syllabus for the course.
Your question has come very timely, because for a short time they are putting
the $195 course on a 48-hour introductory sale for $10, along quite a number of
UDemy courses (one day left). I like UDemy and have now taken a number of their
courses -- but I never pay the full price. I always wait for a big sale,
usually around $15 or $20 per course. Last Black Friday I got 10 courses for
$15 each. A lot of times the sale price is around $35. I'm still using up my
10 courses, but this is such a great sale I may sign up for a couple more (I
need to work on my minuscule web development expertise as well as my Javascript
knowledge).

I very much would recommend UDemy. A bunch of people I work with needed
to be cross-trained to python, and their course "Complete Python Bootcamp:
Go from zero to hero in Python" by Jose Portilla. This course came highly
recommended by others who took it, and the instructor's style makes it
much easier to stick with the course than some others I have run into at
Coursera or Sitepoint. Even though I already knew a modicum of python at

I really don't know what to say as I basically taught myself python
years ago and use it in hobbyist fashion.** However now I am working on a
bunch of new pieces for the office in python.** Data conversion utilities
and some REST microservices for enhancing business user data access into
PowerBI or some angular 2 front ends.
Anyway long story short, can anyone recommend a good local to Raleigh
python training class to send a group of developers.** Or a trainer who
would come in to train the group on site.
