Using Python Confidently for Data Analysis and Automation
In this hands-on seminar, participants learn the fundamentals of the Python programming language and will be able to develop their own data-processing programs by the end of the course. The training covers both basic syntax and more advanced techniques such as classes, list manipulation, and error handling. Ideal for beginners and technically inclined professionals who want to use Python for analysis, automation, or their first data‑science projects.
