About this course

Grasp Python Basics

Begin at square one with Python, where we demystify coding and set you up with the fundamental skills for data analysis. You'll learn to write your first lines of code, understand Python syntax, and start thinking like a data analyst.

Data Manipulation with Pandas

Pandas is Python's powerhouse for data manipulation. You'll learn to wrangle, clean, and transform data, preparing it for deeper analysis and insights.
