Hello Tony, I do introduction to Python and Advanced Python training courses "on behalf of" David Beazley. They're great courses (excellent material and I'm a pretty good trainer). They're not cheap and they're best value if done for several people. The course length is 3-4 days and it can be somewhat tweaked depending on your needs. It's usually delivered on-site.
If this is of interest let me know and I can put you in touch with David to arrange.
