Real Python Office Hours

Your Real Python membership includes access to “Office Hours” live Q&A sessions

Join us live for the next members-only Q&A session with the Real Python Team!

You’ll meet fellow Pythonistas to chat about your learning progress, ask questions, and discuss Python tips & tricks via screen sharing.

Just click the “register” button on the office hours schedule below.

And in between meetings, come hang out with the hosts and fellow attendees in the #office-hours channel in our Slack community! You can use Slack to share code snippets you’d like to discuss during the live session. Check our Slack guide to learn how.

Note: If you want to get an idea what Office Hours are like, you can check out previously recorded events in the Office Hours Archive.

Current Office Hours sessions are not recorded anymore. Office Hours are currently one-time events where you can ask whatever you want in a safe space. What’s discussed won’t leave the current session, except that we can continue the discussion in the #office-hours Slack channel.
