Workshops and Courses

From time to time I’ve had the pleasure of running a few training courses. Get in touch if you’d like to discuss running one of the following courses in your organization:

  • Introduction to Programming in Python – multi day training course.
  • Python deep dive workshop – training course aimed at levelling up existing Python developers. Together we choose a couple of domains to spend time on, for example; modelling, machine learning/data science, web development, integration with other languages, testing, writing and packaging Python code for others.
  • Introduction to Julia – 1/2 day workshop aimed at teaching the Julia language to existing developers.
