[b]Description[/b]
Become a COBOL professional and learn one of employer's most requested skills nowadays!This comprehensive course is designed so that Mainframe Developers, Consultants, Professionals, IT students, companies, entrepreneurs... can learn COBOL Programming from scratch to use it in a practical and professional way. Never mind if you have no experience in the topic, you will be equally capable of understanding everything and you will finish the course with total mastery of the subject.After several years working in IT, we have realized that nowadays mastering COBOL for mainframe computing is very necessary in legacy system maintenance, financial services, government positions, system integration, software modernization, and research and development. Knowing how to use this tool can give you many job opportunities and many economic benefits, especially in the world of IT.The big problem has always been the complexity to perfectly understand COBOL requires, since its absolute mastery is not easy. In this course we try to facilitate this entire learning and improvement process, so that you will be able to carry out and understand your own projects in a short time, thanks to the step-by-step, detailed and hands-on examples of every concept.With almost 8 exclusive hours of video, this comprehensive course leaves no stone unturned! It includes both practical exercises and theoretical examples to master COBOL Programming. The course will teach you how work on mainframe projects written in COBOL language in a practical way, from scratch, and step by step.We will start with the installation and setup of the needed work environment on your computer, regardless of your operating system and computer.Then, we'll cover a wide variety of topics, including:Introduction to COBOL and course dynamicsUnderstanding COBOL's history, setup, and compilation processMastering COBOL's basic program layout and componentsHandling different data types and performing arithmetic operationsImplementing decision-making logic using IF, ELSE, and THEN constructsCreating loops and iterative processes for efficient data processingManaging file handling and organization within COBOL programsManipulating structured data using arrays and tables in COBOLModularizing code and understanding parameter passing mechanismsEffectively manipulating strings using COBOL's string operationsAdhering to COBOL coding standards and understanding its relevance in modern IT environmentsMastery and application of absolutely ALL the functionalities of COBOLQuizzes, Practical exercises, complete projects and much more!In other words, what we want is to contribute our grain of sand and teach you all those things that we would have liked to know in our beginnings and that nobody explained to us. In this way, you can learn to build and manage a wide variety of projects and make versatile and complete use of mainframe COBOL. And if that were not enough, you will get lifetime access to any class and we will be at your disposal to answer all the questions you want in the shortest possible time.Learning COBOL has never been easier. What are you waiting to join?
