What we’re about
The free Beginners' Python support sessions are run by SkyPy.
The SkyPy project aims to introduce complete beginners to the Python programming language in the hope to increase the number of females in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) as well as strengthen the community as a whole.
We meet every Wednesday.
The first week of each month is usually an absolute beginners session, followed by other topics which may be more advanced every other Wednesday from 5:30 - 7:30 pm. We reserve the right to deny participation to anyone being disrespectful to mentors or other members.
The sessions are interactive so please bring your laptops.
All session summaries are available for review at https://github.com/anniequasar/session-summaries .
In the coming months, lessons and training will cover all the basics in order to provide beginners with the skills to take on a real-life project/ online competition.
There is a slackspace for sharing data at beginnerspython.slack.com - please email skypyprojectatgmaildotcom for an invitation to join the space.
