[4 sessions] Software Development Programme

We offer a 50% discount to students; please complete this form to avail the discount.

This is a 4-session professional training programme covering practical systems programming in C/C++, Python and Rust, and the networking beneath it.

The programme takes you from writing correct code in three languages to building and operating networked services. Every session combines focused teaching, a worked demonstration and hands-on lab time, with practical projects and graded exercises.

The programme consists of four sessions:

• Session 1 — C and C++

• Session 2 — Python

• Session 3 — Rust

• Session 4 — Networking

What You Will Learn

By the end of this programme, you will:

• Develop practical programming skills in C/C++, Python and Rust

• Understand memory management, pointers, ownership and borrowing

• Work with multithreading, concurrency and asynchronous programming

• Build data-processing tools and REST API services

• Understand TCP/IP, sockets and network communication

• Analyse packets and build networked applications

• Develop concurrent services and measure performance under load

Why This Matters

Modern software systems require more than writing code that works in isolation. They also require reliable memory management, concurrency, data processing and networking skills.

This programme provides practical experience building working software, from individual programming exercises to networked services.

Ideal For

• Engineers and graduates who can already program in at least one language

• Software developers looking to deepen their systems programming skills

• Technical professionals interested in C/C++, Python and Rust

• Engineers seeking practical networking and concurrent programming experience

No prior C++, Rust or networking experience is assumed.

Training Format

• 4 sessions

• 3 hours per session

• 12 hours in total

• Live online training

• Hands-on programming exercises

• Instructor-led demonstrations

• Graded exercises and practical projects

A standard laptop running Windows, macOS, or Linux is sufficient. All exercises use free, open-source tools and are designed to run offline.

The sessions are designed to be taken in order, although each session can also stand on its own if you only need part of the programme.
