| There are an overwhelming number of options that are available to
| those who want to learn. Introduction to Programming is designed

| This course, which includes video lectures, lab exercises, and
| full program code will prepare your for entry level jobs in
| development  or simply make you comfortable with code and
| confident in more advanced study.

| As you build a portfolio of skills, you'll also build a portfolio
| of completed projects that can be used to demonstrate your new
| skill sets.
| In Level I of the course we focus on foundations-- The things that
| all developers need to know to be successful. With each passing
