  3. You will gain a solid understanding of web development principles using Python and Django. You will learn to develop database-driven applications utilizing Django’s ORM.

  4. The course will also cover the creation of dynamic web pages through Django templates and forms, as well as the implementation of authentication and authorization for enhanced security.

  5. Finally, you will explore how to deploy Django applications on cloud platforms.

CERTIFICATION:

  1. Certificate of Completion: After finishing the specialization, participants will receive a shareable certificate issued by Coursera in collaboration with the University of Michigan.

  2. Portfolio-Ready Projects: During the courses, participants will create practical projects, including blogs, e-commerce platforms, and REST APIs, which can be highlighted in their professional portfolios.

  3. Career Advancement: This certification provides learners with essential skills for entry-level positions in back-end development, focusing on Django as the main framework.

LEARNING OUTCOMES:

By the conclusion of the course, participants will possess the skills to:

  1. Upon completing the Django for Everybody Specialization, participants will acquire a comprehensive understanding of Django, enabling them to streamline web development through its advanced abstractions.

  2. They will learn to effectively build and organize Django projects while utilizing the MVT (Model-View-Template) architecture to develop dynamic web applications.

  3. Additionally, learners will become proficient in employing Django’s Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) for database interactions, executing CRUD operations seamlessly, and designing relational databases tailored for web applications.

  4. Furthermore, they will focus on user-centric features by implementing authentication and authorization systems, ensuring secure login/logout processes, and managing user profiles and sessions.

  5. Mastery of Django’s templating system will allow them to create dynamic HTML pages, manage user input, and validate forms while adhering to best practices for responsive and accessible web interfaces.

  6. Participants will also gain insights into building RESTful APIs using the Django REST Framework (DRF), facilitating JSON-based communication between front-end and back-end systems, and securing APIs through token-based authentication.

  7. Finally, they will learn to deploy Django applications on cloud platforms such as PythonAnywhere, Heroku, or AWS, configure development and production environments, and optimize performance and scalability for live applications.
