This course is appropriate for:

• People who want to use Python within Plone (or outside of Plone)
• People who have used "scripting languages" like PHP
  
• People who have no experience with scripting or programming at all
  
  

Requirements

This course assumes some Plone experience such as administering a Plone site through the ZMI or theming a Plone site.

This is a hands-on class. You will want, if possible, to bring a laptop with Plone installed (students will receive simple step-by-step instructions on how to set up their Plone site for class).

This class is closed for registration.
