To find (free) business software written in Python, search at
https://pypi.python.org/pypi
sourceforge.net
or you favorite search engine.

Perhaps you can learn to use and adapt a few to solve local business 
problems.

The phrase you are looking for is 'full-fledged'. 'Fledge' has the same 
root as 'fly' and it means 'develop the feathers needed to fly' (for a 
young bird). So a full-fledged computer science course would be one that 
teaches you all the skills you need to 'fly' on your own.
