FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No prior programming experience is required. The course starts with Python essentials and builds up from there, so beginners are well covered.
You'll build three hands-on projects: a task manager, a data dashboard, and a performance optimizer, each pulling together the lessons leading up to it.
Most learners complete the core curriculum in around 7 hours, though pacing is entirely up to you since the course is self-paced.
Everything is self-paced. There's no fixed schedule — work through the lessons whenever it fits your week.
Just a computer and a free Python installation. We'll point you to the libraries and toolkits — including Pandas and Matplotlib — as each lesson needs them.
