    We are working with a couple different universities in Illinois to promote mainframe, and a couple are currently looking for instructors.  One has a long established program but is looking for an instructor for one course next semester, while the other is restarting their mainframe program and is looking for an instructor to help them get started again.  In both cases you must be a US Resident, one class is in person in Normal, Illinois, while the other is virtual, but the university is in Springfield, Illinois.  If interested let me know and I can get you more details and connect you with the right people to discuss details

    Gregory,

    Thank you for helping move the Z skills pipeline issue forward.

    Anyone that is willing to teach z/OS and you question your z/OS skill level, etc., my job responsibilities include spending as much time as needed making the willing to teach z/OS, capable of teaching z/OS.  I have successfully done this for 2 decades with excellent results.

    Hi,

    Just saw your message in the group.

    I am willing to teach z/OS topics. I used to run the CoE (Skills Enablement) to enable systems programming skills while working for IBM India (Bangalore).

    Currently I am working out of Denmark for SMT Data. 

    Anyone interested please connect for a detailed discussion.

    Will be too happy to give to the technical community.

    Regards,

    Ralph

    Would possibly be able to assist with remote lecturing and mentoring of students.

    Would like to update my teaching and LMS  skills .

    Based in GMT+2 timezone, but can adapt to other zones.

    For the one at Illinois State University, it is next semester, so starting in January, and as I understand it will just be next semester, so likely need to be someone more local to Normal, IL since people wouldn't want to move for a single semester.  The one in Springfield is gonna be a virtual class, so no movement would be necessary.  They are working to restart their program, so would be involved with development of curriculum, likely leveraging resources from this community and utilizing Z Xplore.
