Weekend hands-on Python workshop for beginners

For SF Python's May 'Project Night", we are doing to do something super special for the beginners in our community. We are partnering with Holberton School to offer a weekend-long hands-on Python workshop for the beginners!

Feel free to forward this special event to people that you think can benefit!

During the weekend workshop, you will learn the basics of Python and programming. Print strings, use variables, conditions and loops and publish your work to Github. Everything will be done using the Linux distribution Ubuntu, so you’ll also learn some command line skills. For those who are fast learners, the staff at Holberton School will have advanced tasks for you, so expect to be challenged!

What to expect: a weekend to understand the fundamentals of Python with a collaborative hands on workshop in Bay Area’s leading coding School.

When: 9am to 6pm, Saturday June 2 and Sunday June 3

Who is this for: anyone who wants to learn Python and has an interest in becoming a full-stack developer.

Logistics: The Holberton School in San Francisco will provide workstations for the weekend. There will be breaks throughout the day, but please bring your own food.

Max number of students: 30. Act soon! Once the slots are filled, they are filled.

Cost: $30 per participant. The ticket is non-refundable, all proceeds will go to SF Python to expand our activities and community.

SF Python is run by volunteers aiming to foster the Python community and ecosystems in the SF Bay Area. Check out our flagship event PyBay2018, the 3rd Annual Regional Python Conference this August 16-19.

Holberton School is the leading full-stack developer program. The 9 month to 2-year training is free until the students find a job. Fun fact: the school’s pedagogy is focused on learning by doing: no teachers, no formal classes, only projects, and collaboration. The top participants will be offered to join Holberton School.
