I am excited to announce that the Raspberry Pi course is now confirmed! Each participant will get the following:

HRD101 – 1-Day Getting Started with Raspberry Pi and Python Programming

The Raspberry Pi is a low-cost (US$35) credit-sized computer that connects to your TV and keyboard. Running Linux as the operating system, it can be used for many purposes such as word-processing, games, spreadsheets, web browsing, and more; almost everything that you can do with a regular computer. What’s more, usng the Raspberry you can connect the  general purpose input and output (GPIO) pins right on the board to drive external hardware such as LEDs, motors, and relays. Programming on the Raspberry Pi is made simple using the Python language. Hence, this course will get you started with Raspberry Pi and the Python programming language.
