  • 1.  Will the Enterprise COBOL for Business Application Programming course be held again?

    Posted Mon April 05, 2021 10:56 AM
    Hello! I've just got into COBOL programming and I missed the course :( Are there any plans to hold it again?

    It is not in the plans currently. However, there is another free IBM offered self paced course that a student can take, linked at https://learn.ibm.com/course/view.php?id=7552.

    Many thanks for the reply :) I've already done the course, which was a lot of fun. I'll keep my eyes open for further courses and learning material.

    Have you checked the Advanced Topic section of the Open Mainframe Project's course?

    Latest version will always be the master branch on https://github.com/openmainframeproject/cobol-programming-course
    Latest PDF is on the releases section on https://github.com/openmainframeproject/cobol-programming-course/releases

    Currently it is still in development, but it have some Db2 materials and also numeric representative. I'm also trying to add some stuff on dynamic length items and UTF-8 data, both of which are new to Enterprise COBOL 6.3.

    p.s. Some other mainframe-related learning resources: https://community.ibm.com/community/user/ibmz-and-linuxone/groups/community-home/digestviewer/viewthread?GroupId=5515&MessageKey=94af957b-62b4-452d-818d-da17aef08a43&CommunityKey=27b746cd-ca36-49bb-a1ad-01e7aec7d9aa&tab=digestviewer
