The demand for professionals in information technology (IT) is high, and the competition for jobs is intense. The Python Certification Program helps the IT industry make these distinctions by establishing a standard of competence in specific job roles. The marketplace knows Python can manage the most advanced information systems for large enterprises, small and mid-size businesses, and departments.

1 About Python

• Python runs on Windows, Linux/Unix, Mac OS X, and has been ported to the Java and .NET virtual machines.
• Python is powerful... and fast
• Python is a remarkably powerful dynamic programming language that is used in a wide variety of application domains. 
• Python is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Ruby, Scheme or Java. 

Some of its key distinguishing features include:

• very clear, readable syntax
• strong introspection capabilities
• intuitive object orientation
• natural expression of procedural code
• full modularity, supporting hierarchical packages
• exception-based error handling
• very high level dynamic data types
• extensive standard libraries and third party modules for virtually every task
• extensions and modules easily written in C, C++ (or Java for Jython, or .NET languages for IronPython)
• embeddable within applications as a scripting interface

    1.2 Python plays well with others

• Python can integrate with COM, .NET, and CORBA objects.
• For Java libraries, use Jython,  Python for the Java Virtual Machine.
• For .NET, try IronPython .
• Python is also supported for the Internet Communications Engine (ICE) .
• Low-level code, you can write extension modules in C or C++, or wrap existing code with SWIG or Boost.Python. 

    1.3 Python runs everywhere

• Python is available for all major operating systems: Windows, Linux/Unix, OS/2, Mac, Amiga, among others
• Your favorite system isn't listed here? It may still support Python if there's a C compiler for it. 

    1.4. Python is friendly... and easy to learn

• The Python newsgroup is known as one of the friendliest around. 
• Python also comes with complete documentation, both integrated into the language and as separate web pages. 

    1.5. Python is Open Source

• Python is under an open source license that makes it freely usable and distributable, even for commercial use. 
• The Python license is administered by the Python Software Foundation

    2. Application Domains

• Web and Internet Development
• Database Access
• Desktop GUIs
• Scientific and Numeric
• Education
• Network Programming
• Software Development
• Game and 3D Graphics
