PYTHON PROGRAMMING SHORT COURSE: SINGAPORE

The future is bright for programmers who know Python — it’s a baseline skill for high-growth industries like analytics, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and data science, which was named the #1 most promising job by LinkedIn.

Python is also incredibly accessible. Thanks to Python’s versatility and intuitive syntax, it’s one of the easiest programming languages to learn on the market — a good choice for beginners to the world of programming. And according to GitHub, Python skills are some of the most in-demand skills in the job market across Singapore and worldwide.

Our Singapore Python Programming Short Course is our best entry-level course for Singapore-based professionals looking to gain a foundation in programming to kickstart a move into tech or data. You’ll find a diverse range of students in the Singapore Python course classroom, including:
