Introduction to Programming is a 2-day, hands-on course designed for those who have little to no knowledge of programming but want to learn the skills needed to develop complex applications. Attendees will be guided through key programming concepts including commenting, variables, user input, logic and design, loops, and functions. Students will join a live, online, instructor-led, virtual desktop environment with the ability to ask questions and test their knowledge. The course uses the IDEAScript Editor to navigate through the fundamentals and provides a brief introduction to the integration of programming and IDEAScript.
