[BangPypers] [X-Post] PythonExpress challenges

[vijay kumar]

Hi All,
As we discussed couple of months ago[0], PythonExpress project requires
funding to take care of certain things.

a) Keeping the tutor motivated and encouraged to conduct multiple workshops
seems to be tough. Even though we take care of travel and accommodation
with or without the help of colleges, we find short of tutors some times.
IMO, we should provide a small token amount to tutors to show appreciation.

b) we should think of an option to provide college students certificates as
a workshop without certificates is not welcomed as much by all colleges and
students.
I think that this can be resolved in 2 ways.
1. Request college to pay us if they need certificates - hard copy.
2. Generate soft copies of certificate (PDF) and share it with students
once college uploads the student details.

Also,
c) Conducting Intermediate level workshop for the students who has taken
the the beginners level since we are not able to find tutors.

Kindly let us know your thoughts on the same.
