Description

Introduction to Programming is designed to give you a complete overview into the foundations of the programming universe. You’ll be prompted with the basics of both front and back end technologies but also be given some in-depth analysis of important concepts and structural key-standards.

Each section has its own challenge and assessment waiting for you!

You’ll also have plenty of hands-on experience, aka Projects to build your own Portfolio, throughout the entire course, providing you with competent know-how in both theoretical and practical fieldsets.

List of Projects:

  • Reviewing a specific Web Site
  • Building a MP3 Player
  • Creating a responsive Mobile App
  • Programming an Interest Calculator
  • The Magic 8 Ball
  • Building a Web Services Project
Regarding Web Environment, technology-wise, you’ll learn HTML, CSS and Python. In the Mobile Environment, JavaScript (jQuery) and SQL will run the show.

Community-wise, you’ll be among over 500.000 students who also learned programming from one of our LearnToProgram Courses.

Certificate of Completion will be given upon finishing the course.

Looking forward to seeing you in class! Please make it count!
