Hello Grokking Python readers!
If you're just starting to learn Python, then one great thing you can do to get inspired is to attend conferences. We’ll be including links to grants and financial aid to subsidize the cost of attending, so check those out ASAP! If you're worried that concepts will fly over your head, don't fret. Not everyone is an expert in data science or machine learning. Conferences are just a great way to learn through osmosis, network, and find job opportunities.
