z/OS Entry Level Mainframe Training Program - Industry Standard Courses

Mainframe System Software

Enrollment requires a consultation with the manager sending the employee for the training. It is contingent upon the prospective trainee's having been qualified by a licensed Director to have the appropriate background for the training and review of a checklist of items required for transmission of the service to the client location: bandwidth, firewall, base operating system, software requirements, web browser, and set-up of hands-on machine exercises. SYS-ED reserves the right to deny enrollment in its courses.

Alternative web-based and e-learning training is available: self-paced, presentation through the client's authoring system, or podcast. Client organizations are presented with a palette of medium to select from in order to address selection of content, time compression, scheduling, and operational requirements. These tailored services are offered selectively.
