The Python Web Development with Django Competency (Intermediate Level) benchmark measures your knowledge of implementing a simple Django model and deploying it to a linked database. You will be evaluated on your ability to use Django templates and the Django Model class, recognize the migration process within Django, and build web pages that allow interactions with Django model instances. You will also be evaluated on your ability to add and access an image in a Django model, create applications to accept and store information from users, and send emails from a Django app. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the skills to work with models and class-based views and can build multiple applications in a project.
