CitizenDev | Becoming a Pythonista
Details
This is a heads-up invite for the resumption of our coding for the complete beginners initiative.
We are committed to promoting the empowerment of non-IT professionals to transform into proficient superusers, also known as citizen developers. Citizen developers (CitizenDevs) create application functionalities for personal or team use, employing tools that align with IT and business unit policies.
Participating in this course is the initial stride on the journey to becoming a CitizenDev. It will run for almost a month mostly online but with some face-to-face catch-up during the duration of the course. We will cover the first 10 chapters of Python for Everybody by Prof. Chuck Severance. You can see our active project repository here https://github.com/codesydney/citizendev.
