• Jupyter Notebooks - You will be using the excellent Jupyter Notebook to run most of the code during class. It provides an interactive coding environment to quickly execute code, get feedback, and make notes.
• Assignment - You will be given an assignment on how to use Jupyter Notebooks and write Markdown that is expected to be completed before the start of the course.
• Private Slack Channel - Upon registration, you will be given access to Ted's private Slack channel where you can directly communicate with him and ask questions about the course.

Week 1

• Selecting subsets of data with the brackets
• Selecting subsets of data with loc
• Selecting subsets of data with iloc

Week 2

• Boolean selection single conditions
• Boolean selection multiple conditions
• Filtering with the query method
• Miscellaneous subset selection

Certification Exam

After completion of the live course, you will be given a comprehensive and challenging exam on all topics covered. Passing this exam will earn you a certification of completion.

Target Student

The Python Pandas Certification Track set of courses targets those who desire to become an expert at using Python to analyze data. It also targets those who want challenging exams to prove their expertise. You will need to set aside significant time (20 - 40 hours per course) in order to compete all the exercises and study for the certification exam.

Interactive Class

Class time is divided between live coding sessions delivered by Ted and hands-on practice exercises and projects that you complete. During the live coding you are provided an outline of the topics that Ted will cover as a Jupyter Notebook allowing you to code right along with Ted, explore how the commands work, and ask questions.
