Event Details

ICFOSS is organizing a “Bridge Course for students” in “Introduction to Python and Free and Open Source Software (FOSS)” scheduled from 29^th July 2024 to 9^th August 2024. This program is specifically designed for students who have completed their higher secondary education and aspires to pursue Engineering or BSc degrees in fields such as Computer Science, Electronics, Data Analytics, Physics, Mathematics and Statistics. This program mainly aims to provide them with the necessary knowledge, skills, and confidence to excel in various fields. It equips them with a strong foundation in Python programming and exposure to FOSS principles, setting them on a path for success and support during this transition period from school to college. This also aims to utilize this waiting period effectively by offering relevant educational activities and resources to help students to bridge the gap and stay engaged academically.

This training is a combined course of Introduction to Python and Free and Open Source Software (FOSS), which is designed by ICFOSS to introduce students to Python programming and familiarize them with the concept and usage of free and open source software (FOSS). It provides a smooth transition and foundational knowledge in Python programming for those who have limited or no prior experience in the language and in FOSS. It not only enhances their technical skills but also instills values of collaboration, knowledge sharing, and innovation that are essential in the field of technology. By the end of the course, students feels confident and well-prepared to tackle the challenges of college-level programming courses.

Objectives:

• Skill development and readiness for college: The course aims to develop essential skills required for success in college-level Engineering programs and BSc degrees in fields of Computer Science, Electronics, Data Analytics, Physics, Mathematics, and Statistics. It focuses on improving programming proficiency, logical reasoning, algorithmic thinking, and software development practices. The program also aims to support students, helping them stay motivated, engaged, and prepared for their upcoming computer science or engineering programs.

Course Highlights: Live Classes, Structured curriculum by industry veterans, Customized for time flexibility, Custom learning path, Practical experience through simulations and project.  

Mode of training: This training program is conducting in offline mode and our systematic approach includes skills assessment, intensive trainings and mentoring that helps valuable learning opportunities and unwavering support to students during this transition period.
