I took part in the creation of the first Python Workshop for Cisco employees, targeted towards beginners ─ with or without previous programming experience.

The workshop consisted on three fundamental pillars:

• Sessions. Each week there was an instructor-delivered session, in which students were able to learn more about different introductory Python topics. The slides and recordings were made available after each session. In the sessions, there were demos, fun facts, and time to ask questions!
• Exercises. In each session, students were be provided a notebook where they could get some hands-on practice into the language.
• Assignments. Additionally, the exercises had some scorable assignments at the end of them.

With the content being divided into seven sessions:

1. Introduction to Python. Programming basics, what is Python, let's dive in!
2. Data Types. What is a variable, built-in data types, operators, input data
3. Conditionals. Booleans, conditional operators, conditional statements (if, else)
4. Flow Control. Introduction to loops, range() function, while loop, for loop
5. Lists. Recap, lists, strings are lists!
6. Collections. Tuples, dictionaries, sets, math library
7. Functions and Exceptions. Functions, type casting, exceptions
