About

In this universal bootcamp, we will go over all of the basics and essential topics of Python that are necessary to master the PCEP Certification Exam. PCEP, or Python Certified Entry Programmer, is a highly sought after certification by OpenEDG among software developers today because it allows for them to show their entry-level skills to job recruiters across various platforms. This series will be very flexible and expect numerous coding challenges and collaborations with other members. Besides that, I will help you across every step of the journey to help achieve the prestigious PCEP certification, so enroll today to learn something new!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Scheduling conflicts can occur, and that can sometimes necessitate in an unavoidable absence. While that is fine, I suggest that you try to not miss too many classes, as Python is a skill that builds upon each topic learned in the basics. You will not be penalized for absences, and if you need a make-up class to go over what you missed, you can schedule one with me.
