Introduction to Python Programming

Geo-ICT Training Center, Netherlands - Advanced Python

Python is one of the most widely used programming languages in the world—and for good reason. Its clear syntax and unmatched versatility make it a top choice for beginners and experienced developers alike. From web development and automation to artificial intelligence, scientific research, and geo-information systems, Python plays a critical role in almost every area of tech.

Its interpreter-based model allows you to write and run code quickly, making it perfect for rapid prototyping and fast development cycles—especially in high-speed industries like geospatial analysis and data science. Libraries like NumPy, SciPy, Pandas, and GeoPandas provide Python with advanced capabilities to work with large, complex datasets, whether structured, time-based, or location-driven.

But to unlock Python’s full potential in professional settings, a deeper skill set is essential. Writing high-quality code that is clean, reliable, and adaptable requires more than just basic syntax knowledge. Advanced programming techniques—like error handling, modular design, database interaction, and parallel processing—are key to building robust, production-level software. That’s exactly what this course helps you master.

To get the most out of the Advanced Python Course, we highly recommend completing our Basic Python Course first—it lays the essential groundwork you’ll build on throughout the program.

What will you learn

In the Advanced Python Programming Course, you’ll strengthen your foundational knowledge and push further into the capabilities that set expert developers apart. You’ll start by diving deep into object-oriented programming (OOP), learning how to design reusable, maintainable code using classes, inheritance, polymorphism, and design patterns.

You’ll also focus on writing cleaner, more efficient code using modular structures and best practices for code formatting and structure. The course introduces tools to help you handle real-world challenges, like exceptions, logging, and debugging. You’ll also build and run unit tests, making your software more stable and dependable.

As you progress, you’ll explore advanced functions like lambdas, decorators, and generators, giving you new ways to write compact, high-performance code. You’ll connect Python to popular databases like SQLite and PostgreSQL, learning how to run SQL queries within your scripts and manage large datasets with ease.

In the final part of the course, you’ll tackle concurrency and process communication. You’ll learn how to use sockets, pipes, threading, and multiprocessing to create responsive programs that perform multiple tasks at once. You’ll also work with Anaconda and Jupyter Notebooks to manage your environment and keep your projects organized—especially helpful when working with complex data or presenting your work interactively.

Why choose this course

If you already know the basics and want to become truly fluent in Python, this course is your next step. Here’s why developers choose this program:

  • Expert-led and industry-relevant: Taught by professionals with hands-on experience in Python and geo-information development.
  • Practical, hands-on learning: Real-world projects and exercises ensure you’re not just learning concepts—you’re applying them.
  • Tailored to data and geo-information needs: Learn how to work with structured and spatial data, which is essential in today’s job market.

    Course structure

    Day 1

    The course kicks off with a review of core programming concepts like collections and functions, then dives into object-oriented programming. You’ll learn how to build reusable and structured code using classes, instances, and inheritance. Later, you’ll explore more advanced OOP techniques like polymorphism and design patterns. Throughout the day, you’ll work on hands-on exercises to reinforce your understanding and apply what you’ve learned to real-world problems.

    Day 2

    You’ll begin the day with structured approaches to error handling that make your code more stable. Then, you’ll explore Python’s logging features and debugging tools to identify and fix problems efficiently. The session wraps up with unit testing, giving you the ability to create automated tests that catch bugs before they impact your application.

    Day 3

    On day three, the focus shifts to writing efficient code. You’ll work with Lambda functions, recursion, decorators, and generators to improve memory management and performance. Later in the day, you’ll learn how to connect Python to databases like SQLite and PostgreSQL, and how to run SQL queries from within your scripts. You’ll practice loading, managing, and analyzing data—skills that are essential in any data-driven role.

    Day 4

    The final day introduces you to organizing your code using modules and packages. You’ll also learn how to prepare your applications for distribution. Then, the focus turns to parallel programming. You’ll explore sockets and pipes for process communication, and learn how to use threading and multiprocessing to build programs that can handle multiple tasks simultaneously. These skills are key for creating fast, responsive, and efficient software.
