Independent provider. Not an accredited awarding body. Not a regulated qualification.

What You Will Master

  • Translate a request into a contract, hand-derived examples, and an independent plan
  • Practice core syntax while explaining collection ownership and runtime behavior
  • Choose bounded AI tutoring, implementation, and review requests
  • Diagnose failures with hypotheses, traces, and minimal reproductions
  • Derive independent test expectations and review candidate patches
  • Apply bounded AI prompts to event aggregation and latest-window debugging
  • Extend a working program and assess unaided reconstruction with a practice journal

Skills Acquired

Prerequisites

  • Basic programming experience with functions, loops, lists, and dictionaries
  • Python 3.10 or later and a text editor for the downloadable exercises
  • No paid AI tool or API key is required; AI interactions can be replaced with self-review and documentation
