Programming with Python

45-Day Skill Course | Online Mode | Fee: ₹2,500/-
1. Programme Overview

The Programming with Python skill course is a short-term, 45-day programme designed to provide a structured introduction to programming using Python. The course is organized into four blocks comprising twelve units, progressing from basic concepts to advanced applications with a strong focus on practical learning.

In the initial phase, learners are introduced to Python fundamentals, including syntax, data types, operators, and control statements. The course then moves to core programming constructs such as arrays, strings, functions, and essential data structures like lists, tuples, and dictionaries.

The intermediate phase focuses on developing programming proficiency through modular programming and problem-solving techniques. Advanced topics such as object-oriented programming, GUI development using Python, and file and database handling are also covered to enhance real-world application skills. The final phase emphasizes hands-on practice through practical exercises, enabling learners to apply their knowledge to build simple programs and applications.

By the end of the programme, learners will have a solid foundation in Python programming and be prepared for further learning in software development, data science, and related domains.
