Course overview

From Curious to Confident: Python Essentials for AI Product Leaders

In this two-part workshop, you'll transform from:

- feeling out of place in technical discussions

- getting frustrated with AI courses and content that assume a programming background

- wishing you could get more technical depth, but not knowing where to start


...to a place where:

- you're confidently understanding and applying Python fundamentals with AI

- you know how to interpret code and collaborate effectively with developers

- you even write simple scripts to test out your AI ideas in a Notebook environment, and debug simple errors in code generation tools


Whether you're accessing APIs to harness LLM functionality or just decoding what your team is doing, you'll leave equipped with practical skills and the confidence to lead AI-driven projects—no prior coding experience required.

Who is this course for

01

You're a product leader without coding experience curious about how to get started in Python for AI prototyping

02

You are excited to prototype using AI code generation tools like Cursor or Replit - but need to understand the code they're writing

03

You want to learn more about building with AI and Large Language Models but many courses require some python basics
