Name: Python Learners' Co-op
Start: 2024-09-25T18:30:00+12:00
End: 2024-09-25T20:30:00+12:00

Are you interested in **learning** Python or improving your **skills**? You are invited to join a *free* **Python Learners' Co-op**, a unique and collaborative approach to **mastering** Python programming.

**Who is this for?** You! Whether you are:
\* Starting from scratch
\* Looking to finish a previous course
\* Self-taught and seeking a cohesive understanding
\* Wanting to refresh and confirm existing knowledge
You're welcome to join our co-operative group where learners and mentors come together to learn, discuss, and grow.

**What's so special about our co-op?**

1. *Flexibility:* Choose any Python course that aligns with your interests and goals. Learn at your own pace, fitting study around your work and family commitments.
2. *Regular meetings:* Join us for weekly [café-style](https://danceswithmice.info/Python/LearningCo-op/Caf%C3%A9StyleMeetings.pdf) virtual meetings when we will discuss progress, tackle problems, clarify materials, explore real-world applications, share insights, and anything else helpful or interesting.
3. *Collaborative support:* Benefit from the encouragement and feedback of fellow learners and experienced mentors.
4. *Self-paced learning:* Work on your chosen course when it suits you, without the pressure to keep up with others.
5. *Mentor guidance:* Experienced mentors will help you choose suitable courses and provide support throughout your learning journey.

**Key Details:**

* *Start Date:* Wednesday, September 25, 2024, at 18:30 NZST (tentative)
* *Format:* Weekly virtual meetings (1-2 hours)
* *Cost:* Free to participate (some courses are free, others chargeable)

**What to expect:**

* [Café-style](https://danceswithmice.info/Python/LearningCo-op/Caf%C3%A9StyleMeetings.pdf) *discussions* about members' learning journeys
* *Opportunities* to share discoveries and tackle perplexing problems
* *Insights* into practical examples and professional applications of Python
* A *supportive community* to help you stay motivated and overcome challenges

**Requirements:**
\- A *computer* with *Python* and a code *editor* installed
\- A recent *web-browser* with *microphone/headset* enabling conversation
*\- Commitment* to active participation in weekly meetings

**Why a co-op?**
*Self-study* requires significant intrinsic *motivation* and only suits some personalities. Most of us prefer the extra *encouragement* of working together with others (but not in lock-step like a university study group) to boost our chances of **success**. This group aims to help you achieve a *professional standard* or enjoy Python as a fulfilling *hobby*, all while fostering a **supportive learning environment**.

**Success Stories:**
Previous participants have reported increased *confidence* in their *Python skills*, making greater *contributions* at work - in some cases reflected in enthusiastic *involvement* in the wider Python community.

Space is limited to ensure quality interactions.
**Interested?** [Further details](https://danceswithmice.info/Python/LearningCo-op/Co-opOutline.pdf). (please don't try to RSVP here)

NB this will be a closed group with membership by-application. Future meetings will not appear 'here'.
