Duration: 3 days
The Introduction to Programming course comprises sessions dealing with variables, expressions, conditional statements, collections, iterative statements, functions, objects, compilation and execution, and best practices.
This hands-on course does not concentrate on any one language in particular, rather its aim is to familiarise delegates with standard programming terminology, structures, and principles. Examples are given in three languages - Python, Java, and JavaScript - and delegates may choose any one of these languages with which to carry out the practical exercises.
Exercises and examples are used throughout the course to give practical hands-on experience with the techniques covered.
This course aims to provide the delegate with the knowledge to be able to produce simple computer programs that demonstrate an understanding of the three core principles of programming - sequence, selection, and iteration. Delegates will also be exposed to functions, objects, and both procedural and object-oriented programming paradigms. The course further aims to prepare delegates to go on to learn any one of many programming languages in detail.
This Introduction to Programming course is designed for those new to programming, who want to learn about the terminology, structures, and principles of programming generally.
Attending this course will provide delegates with the prerequisite knowledge and required skills to go on to learn any programming language in detail, e.g. Java, JavaScript, Python, C, C++, C#, PHP, Perl, Ruby, etc.
The delegate will learn and acquire skills as follows:
Delegates should be able to navigate the filesystem, edit a file, and browse the web. No programming experience is necessary.
Very good course. Alan described each module in detail and guided you through the course at a good pace. The practical elements of this course allowed you to learn each topic at a greater depth.

Alan was great and explained everything clearly and thoroughly. He even provided extra exercises for those of us who completed the tasks early. I started the course with 0 knowledge on Java and ended with a great fundamental understanding.

Excellent delivery, Kevin was very patient and explained everything very clearly.

Alan was amazing and really went above and beyond with the teaching, even as someone who understand computer programming to an intermediate level, Alan Lavender taught me more than what was outlined in the course and it's proving to be helpful in my day to day personal projects.
Hussan - Level 4 Software Tester - IT - July 2022
When I stared this programming course my knowledge was little to nothing during my time studding and watching this course I was able to build a strong foundation and was able to learn and bold new skills.
