Objective

Programming Essentials in Python (short form: Python Essentials) is a two-course series that covers all the basics of programming in Python, as well as general computer programming concepts and techniques, and the object-oriented approach.

The Python Essentials course series is divided into two parts:

Python Essentials 1 (PE1): BASICS, consisting of four modules;
Python Essentials 2 (PE2): INTERMEDIATE, consisting of four modules.
Each student has access to hands-on practice materials, labs, quizzes, and tests to learn how to utilize the skills and knowledge gained on the course and interact with some real-life programming tasks and situations.
