This mini-course is intended to be a follow-on to the Python for Data Science, AI & Development course. It provides you with the opportunity to demonstrate the basic Python skills you have acquired in that course.

This course is a hands-on project on Python. You will assume the role of a Cloud Application Developer. In this role, you will be introduced to the process of packaging and unit testing in Python. Packaging allows the Cloud Application Developer to produce a code unit that can be tested and integrated into a code base. Unit testing assures this code is error-free and integrates properly within a larger project. You will create functions and unit tests, run the unit tests, and package all the files in a standard Python package. You will then submit screenshots of your work as you progress for your peers to review and evaluate your work.

This project comprises two purposely designed modules. Please note that it is part of the IBM Applied Artificial Intelligence (AI) Professional Certificate Program. You cannot enroll for this project separately. If you wish to complete the project, you will need to enroll for the full program.

It is an instructor-led project which runs to a fixed schedule, with set start and finish dates. It is driven forward by your instructor and features live sessions that are aired at a set time. You will, however, have time to complete certain activities at your own pace outside of the live sessions. And you will be encouraged to stay connected with your learning community, mentors, and instructors through the discussion space. To give you an idea of how long the project takes to complete, it is anticipated that if you work 4-6 hours per week, you will complete it in 2 weeks.

Modules also include videos, hands-on labs, and tips. The materials for the project are accessible from the start of the project and will remain available for the duration of your enrollment.

Your IBM Professional Certificate will be issued once you have successfully completed the course.

After completing this course, you will have:

  • Hands-on application of your Python skills.
  • Unit testing of Python code, and creating a Python package.
  • Building, testing, and packaging a Python application using Theia Labs.

  • Course: Python for Data Science, AI & Development.
