VGLUG is sharing various technology knowledge with rural college students. As part of this initiative, we conduct weekly Data analytics with Python and DevOps training classes. The training is divided into 5 teams due to a large number of participants. Engineering students are assigned to Data analytics with Python team 1 & 2, Arts & Science students toData analytics with Python team 1 & 2 , and overall Devops participants are in a separate team. During these sessions, we share knowledge about Data analytics with Python, Cyber Security, free software technologies, tools, and social activities.
