Testimonials from previous workshop

The 3-day Advanced Python Workshop was quite intense but it was time well spent. The workshop was well organized professionally. Anand is very knowledgeable and is an excellent teacher. His material was well researched and organized. Being a casual python programmer for 2 years, this workshop was just at the right level for me. The concepts I learnt here would have taken me far longer to master on my own. I would recommend this workshop to anyone looking to advance their python skills.
