How advanced is "advanced"?

You should be comfortable with variables, loops, functions and lists. If you can write a small script without googling every line, you’re ready. If not, start with the Certificate in Python Programming first.

What projects will I build?

A data-processing pipeline on a real dataset, an API-backed tool, and a personal automation project you choose, plus smaller exercises between them. Everything you build is yours to keep and show.

Does it cover using AI coding assistants?

Yes, honestly: how to use them to move faster on the parts you understand, and why using them to skip understanding leaves you unable to check their work.

How long does it take?

Self-paced. Most learners take four to six weeks at 30 minutes a day. The projects are the bulk of the time, and they’re the point.

Is it included in the subscription?

Yes. One subscription ($29/month or $174/year) covers this course, the beginner Python certificate, and everything else across all 8 schools.
