Participants will learn how to create and manage Git repositories, stage and commit changes, work with branches, connect local projects to GitHub, push and pull code, merge changes and collaborate through pull requests and code reviews. The course also covers how to identify and resolve common merge conflicts. Through hands-on exercises and a practical project, learners will experience a professional development workflow from creating a project locally through to collaborating and merging changes on GitHub. The course is suitable for programmers, web developers, data professionals and AI developers who want to manage their projects more professionally. Requirements No previous experience with Git or GitHub is required. Participants should have basic computer skills and be comfortable working with files and folders. Basic familiarity with a programming language or web development is helpful but not essential. Learners will need a GitHub account and access to a computer on which Git can be installed or used. The course focuses on version control and collaboration rather than programming, so learners may use simple sample project files during practical exercises.
