<h3>Python training course description</h3>
 This Python course focusses on teaching Python for
use in network automation and network DevOps. We
focus on getting delegates up and running with Python
and network automation as quickly as possible rather
than making them great programmers. In other words
we concentrate on enabling delegates to use network
automation libraries such as netmiko, NAPALM and
Nornir, and APIs such as NETCONF and RESTCONF
rather than enabling delegates to produce object
oriented programs. Hands on sessions use Cisco and
Juniper devices.

Often reflexologists, aromatherapists and other complementary therapists add reiki healing to their range of healing skills that they offer their clients.&nbsp;However it is not just for those who have clients it is also a powerful self-development technique for your own personal healing experience and to share with family/friends and give them the benefit of well-being.A certificate at Reiki Level One is needed for you to enrol on this course and I am happy to accept students who have trained elsewhere with another Reiki Master.The Reiki Two course is taught live on line using Zoom.Testimonials:- What other students who have attended my courses are saying&nbsp;Level Two Course&ldquo;She explains everything so well and makes it easy to understand and connect to the reiki. This is my 2nd course I&rsquo;ve done with Margaret&rdquo; (Louise B)."Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed the course." (Beverley S)This is a very well organized and informative course! (Georgie P)
