About
The
workshops
will
cover
an
intense
25-hour
curriculum
designed
to
give
beginners
complete,
basic
programming
skills
to
use
in
their
studies
or
workplace,
with
a
focus
on
data
science
applications.
Over
the
course
of
the
workshops,
participants
will
learn
the
Python
programming
language
through
lectures
and
activities,
supported
by
a
team
of
mentors.
Attendees
must
bring
their
own
laptops,
though
we
can
make
arrangements
for
any
participants
who
do
not
have
their
own
computer.
We
give
our
sincerest
thanks
to
the
Python
Software
Foundation
and
its
Education
and
Outreach
Committee
for
making
these
workshops
possible
with
their
generous
funding!
Participate
These
workshops
are
targeted
at
beginners
with
no
prior
programming
experience.
If
you
are
a
math
or
engineering
student,
you
likely
will
have
too
much
experience
for
these
workshops
to
benefit
you,
but
please
consider
mentoring.
We
are
affiliated
with
Women
in
Computer
Science,
and
value
a
respectful,
supportive
and
welcoming
environment
for
all
participants
(students
and
non-students
alike).
Everyone is welcome to apply for these workshops, though priority will be given to under-represented groups in the field of computing.
Applications
Application
submissions
will
open
on
Monday,
September
8
and
close
at
11:59
pm
on
Thursday,
September
18.

Apply to participate!
Mentor
Mentors
will
help
teach
curriculum
and
provide
one-on-one
assistance
to
participants.
If
you
have
good
knowledge
of
the
Python
programming
language,
we
would
welcome
your
involvement
as
a
mentor!
You
will
be
provided
free
dinners
after
each
session
in
appreciation
of
your
help;
the
dinners
will
also
be
used
as
a
mentor
circle
to
reflect
on
the
day's
session
and
work
on
improvements
for
the
next
event.
Those who want to become mentors should contact Elana.
