Written by Patrycja Okowicka | Apr 24, 2018 5:35:00 AM

It might be a shock for you to find an article about getting started with programming on the blog of a seasoned software house.

But not all of us join STX Next as programmers, and today I’d like to share my experience of learning Python from the perspective of a Junior Inbound Marketing Specialist.

So if you’re fresh in this industry and you would like to find out how programming workshops look, this article is totally for you.

Or if you are a developer and you would like to find out what the whole process of getting the basics of Python looks like from the perspective of non-programmers, keep on reading as well. I hope that it will take you on a trip down memory lane and bring to your mind your own humble beginnings in programming.

By reading this article you will find out:

  • why the Sales and Marketing Team at an IT company should know at least the basics of coding;
  • what the preparation before workshops looks like;
  • how much programming in Python you can get done in two days with no prior knowledge;
  • how learning (even during the weekend) can be fun!
