Are you interested in learning how to code? Our “Virtual On-Ramp to Python” is an introduction for individuals who are comfortable using a computer but have no previous programming experience. Python is a widely used, general purpose programming language. Participants will complete programming topics using an online learning website for Python and also meet virtually for six consecutive Thursdays from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm. Virtual meetings will include time for review, questions, exercises, and live instructor coding. We will cover the fundamentals of coding including variables, conditionals, loops, lists, and functions.

A computer and internet are required for the class, webcam preferred. Waitlisted participants will be notified when future On-Ramp to Python groups are starting.

This six-week course will meet virtually for 6 evenings from 6:30 to 8pm on Thursdays: 10/15, 10/22, 10/29, 11/5, 11/12, 11/19
