As beginners, what is the next step?

If I finish some courses here or anywhere else, what should I do next? When may I say "yes, I am a programmer and I can program well?

Learn HTML for learning the basic structure of webpage. Learn CSS for learning how to style the HTML. Learn JavaScript for adding functionality to the webpage. You can learn Bootstrap after that it is framework of CSS. Then learn jQuery It is a JavaScript Library used to make JavaScript code easier. Learn SQL after that for database. Learn PHP for server-side language. For practicing you can visit some sites for code practice such as codefights.com

if you want to create dynamic web pages, php will be a good start for learning server side scripting. html, php and sql go hand in hand for when creating web pages that connect to databases. from there you can go on to learn java and learn to create android applications and other languages for different types of applications.

I think you should decide what path you'd like to take first. decide if you want to build websites or android apps or ios apps, or pc software or whatever and learn the required languages and master them. then I think you can call yourself a programmer. there's too many languages to learn. just choose what you need to learn and master it.

You could use either as a server-side language. In fact, you can use most languages to do most things. But different languages have different tools for doing different jobs. PHP’s tools for web server work are very popular and well developed, so many people choose to use PHP. https://erminesoft.com/java-JUMP_LINK__&&__python__&&__JUMP_LINK-and-php-which-is-better-for-server-backends/
