Introduction to Programming introduces learners to the logical mind of computing – how computers work with programming languages, and how to write in a way they will understand. Using pseudocode, these lessons are directly applicable across a range of languages taught at CityLit; the instructor is proficient in a number of these and can signpost learners to subsequent courses.

Introduction to Programming will introduce learners to new methods of understanding and 'de-coding' everyday processes, aiding them in the production of programming code through subsequent language specific courses.
