Speakers:

Jordi Ariño, Software Developer Manager at PUE

Description:

Python is a general-purpose programming language and one of the most popular and extended to date, so it has been adopted in most sectors in the industry -finance, medicine, data analysis ...- and is fundamental for the development of key skills in the ICT sector: Big Data, Machine Learning, Data Analysis, IoT, statistics ...

In this workshop you will get a practical view of how to use Python to perform data analysis through a quick tour of basic operations, ranging from data loading and basic graphic scanning, to the processing of this data. For this we will use a series of specific libraries for data management and analysis: Pandas, NumPy ...

This activity is part of the Cisco Networking Academy initiative and aims to transfer the teaching resources that the program makes available to Cisco Academy centres and their instructors for the training of students in Python.

The new PCAP course will be shown: Programming Essentials in Python is available on the NetAcad platform, and developed to train students in the skills needed for programming with Python: designing, writing, debugging and executing programs encoded in Python in parallel to obtaining fundamental knowledge and programming skills necessary for web development, data analysis, IoT ... Emphasize, as an added value, that this course prepares students to pass the official PCAP - Python Certified Associate Programmer certification.

With the registration to this workshop you will receive free access to online training in self-learning format so you can evaluate the Programming Essentials in Python course and the e-learning resources that Cisco makes available to schools and teachers for the training of their students in programming in Python in a practical, official and recognized way.

Cisco Networking Academy is an educational initiative with 20 years of history that has trained a total of 7.8 million students in more than 180 countries.

PUE is the only Cisco Premier Partner in the NetAcad program in Spain, with more than 250 centers attached to its role as Academy Support Center (ASC) and Instructor Training Center (ITC).
