Mark Lutz's Python Training

Prior Classes

Please note: this page has slipped into history. See the training Home page for details, and the Main site for other Python resources.

Please note: this page is intended for historical context only, and is no longer updated; please see its newer version, and contact us for current availability.

For reference, below are my Python class lists for the first 16 years that I provided training (1997 through 2012), along with publication dates of my 14 Python books released along the way (3 books in 4 or 5 editions each), and class totals for each year.

In sum, the 256 live classes I taught in this time period included 5 in the UK; 3 in Spain; 2 each in Puerto Rico, Canada, and Mexico; 3 in NYC; 8 in Texas; 13 each in the DC and Boston areas; 17 in Chicago; and 52 in California. Along the way, I also published 11,000 total book pages, and sold over 400K book units in this period.

Dates below labeled as "(public)" reflect sessions which were open to individual enrollments. Others were on-site classes for private companies and organizations and were not generally open to outside students. All my classes were on-site sessions as of October 2010; I no longer scheduled public classes for individuals after that date.

2013 and Later

I no longer chronicle training activity here from this point forward. Per above, please ask for current availability and status.
