Certified Python Programmer PCEP (ITI 491)

Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer certification is a professional credential that measures your ability to accomplish coding tasks related to the essentials of programming in the Python language.

A test candidate should demonstrate sufficient knowledge of the universal concepts of computer programming, the syntax and semantics of the Python language as well as the skills in resolving typical implementation challenges with the help of the Python Standard Library.

The main goal of the course is to guide you from a state of complete programming illiteracy to a level of programming knowledge which allows you to design, write, debug, and run programs encoded in the Python language, and to understand the basic concepts of software development technology.

The course will prepare you for jobs and careers connected with widely understood software development, which includes not only creating the code itself as a junior developer, but also computer systems design and software testing. This is a hybrid class with 40+ hours of asynchronous instruction.

Objectives:

• Be able to demonstrate universal concepts of computer programming, the syntax and semantics of the Python language
• Demonstrate level of programming knowledge which allows you to design, write, debug, and run programs encoded in the Python language
• Prepare you for a job as a junior developer, and/or computer systems design and software testing
