DB2 Training by SYS-ED

IBM's DB2 databases are the largest repositories of data in the commercial private and government public sectors. DB2 is the lynchpin of the next generation of enterprise and Internet applications. And no one knows DB2 training and teaches better DB2 courses better than SYS-ED. Our collective database design principles and coding techniques reflect the proper implementation of theory pioneered by C.J Date.  SYS-ED's system consultant/instructors included some of the best authors and practitioners in the field: Shaku Atre, Pacifico Lim, David Silverberg, and Jonathan Clarke. It is their diagramming of DB2 architecture, program logic, superb coding and precise explanations which serve as the foundation for our DB2 courses and DB2 training programs. SYS-ED courses reflect the insights and examples that can only be created by experienced systems consultants who have a thorough mastery of DB2's architecture and its evolutionary enhancements. When IT professionals leave a SYS-ED DB2 course, they have the documentation, training aids, demonstration/walk-throughs, examples, and skeleton programs to code and debug DB2 programs, perform administrative tasks, and optimize performance back on the job. Case and point, if your organization outsourced its DB2 coding and program maintenance to consulting companies in the 1980’s, it more than likely was SYS-ED which trained many of the consultants who did the actual design and coding!

Our DB2 training programs and DB2 courses reflect a nonpareil knowledge of DB2 architecture and evolutionary operating systems and IBM mainframe systems software. In addition to the core z/OS DB2 coding and design courses, SYS-ED offers over 50 DB2 courses and DB2 training programs across a comprehensive range of operating systems: IBM mainframe, MS Windows, UNIX, Java, and DB2 XML Extender. And yes, many of our courses are in the process of being developed for distance and e-learning formats.

The DB2 courseware and training aids that we provide as part of our instructor-led courses are unique in the IT field. They reflect far more than simply the vendor documentation. Our content and diagrams provide a detailed examination of the architecture, program logic, and sample programs which have been validated on consulting projects. In this day and age with inter mixing and hybrid implementations of open standards and IBM systems software, reference material which “explains and demonstrate” is fundamental to effective knowledge transfer. Oh and by the way, we get requests from leading software companies and other training companies to license our courseware.

Grow Your Own DB2 UDB Programmers

Over the past year, we have had a number of inquiries regarding whether SYS-ED still offered DB2 courses for IT professionals.
 
The typical comments were:

1.

That it is extremely difficult to find DB2 courses which provides the foundation and develops the specialized skills needed for database administration, maintenance programming, SOA web programming, and system programming.

2.

That there is a scarcity of quality fast-track DB2 courses, 5 or fewer days in duration, geared to corporate employees and their specific work environments and operational objectives.

3.

That a high percentage of DB2 UDB courses are cancelled.

4. That travel costs and living expenses in a majority of situations are a significant constraint when it comes to attending a DB2 course.
5. That it is important to have a resource for asking DB2 questions once the DB2 course is complete.

Caveat Emptor

Prior to scheduling a DB2 course, compare the quality of the training service that SYS-ED offers with the alternatives:

SYS-ED/New York Schedule and Content Delivery Selection

SYS-ED has been conducting courses in the public domain since 1980; however, there have been changes in the laws and regulations governing computer training in the state of New York. The schedule on our websites reflects a projected time frame for licensure with the New York State Department of Education - Bureau of Proprietary School Supervision and submission and approval of curriculum. It will be updated quarterly.

News for Immediate Release

Consulting companies recommend SYS-ED in conjunction with distance-learning products for DB2 UDB programming, database administration, and web enablement training.

DB2 UDB Application Development and Web Enablement Training Program

All IT personnel will need to learn new skills for the z/OS environment in order to implement the next generation of technologies - DB2 UDB, MQSeries, WebSphere, and Java. Training will cut across generations - some very experienced people will be learning web enablement technologies; while first generation IT staff will be using ISPF, JCL, and “tried and tested” mainframe programming languages, such as COBOL for the first time. Training programs based upon the use of various training techniques have been chosen for suitability to the particular course material and audience as well as scheduling and class size requirements.

The following methods will be used for introductory material for personnel, most operator training, and programmer training on selected topics.

Program for Client A

Portfolio: Mainframe Training Services

The plan is to have the entire programming staff and four or five people from operations complete the distance-learning training and then take the SYS-ED instructor-led courses. Based upon feedback from this group, we will either confirm this mix or make adjustments as needed.

On a long range basis, we plan that all of the programmers and operators will be trained in both z/OS and the new web technologies. The exact schedule will depend on the other workloads of the staff. System programmer education would be mostly completed during this period, although specialized courses may be taken later in the year.

Evolving IT - Interrelated Technologies

Information technology training for organizations is more complex and challenging than ever before. There is a huge investment in infrastructure and applications specific to their operations. New industry standard protocols, web server and web enabled technologies require development from scratch or integration with the existing system software and enterprise databases. There will be long term implications regarding the strategic mix of proprietary and open source software which is selected, along with decisions on whether to maintain and upgrade the existing legacy applications, many of which are now thirty or more years of age; while retrofitting and transitioning to the new technologies. SYS-ED trained a significant portion of the first generation of DP personnel. And looks forward to training their IT successors in the 21st century.

DB2 UDB Training in New York

DB2 Courses in New York
SYS-ED's DB2 courses are tough, but they're worth it. Our challenging "hands-on" DB2 training provides a foundation and framework for Fortune 1000 companies, government municipalities, healthcare providers, software houses, and consulting companies to meet their DB2 staffing requirements and acquire specialized DB2 skillsets.1

Courseware
SYS-ED's DB2 courseware is highly respected in the IT field. We draw upon our extensive library of courseware, sample programs, and case studies to explain, demonstrate, and teach the real-world DB2. Our DB2 curriculum include industry standard and consultancy derived content. We have the capability to provide tailored workshops and integrated training programs on z/OS, z/VSE, z/VM, and third party emulation workbench/platforms.

Teaching is Our Business
Most computer training companies are divisions of large software companies or consulting companies. Not SYS-ED. Our only goal is to provide world class DB2 training for highly motivated IT professionals - no more and no less. Because we're independent, we're free to concentrate on teaching - and since 1980 we have been doing it very well.

Our Teachers Know How to Teach
SYS-ED instructors combine teaching skills with broad practical experience as consultants. Our instructors average 25 years of experience with DB2  - operating systems, programming languages, 3rd party utilities/development aids, and system software. And they know how to teach it. We teach not only "how to", but "why", building a solid foundation in fundamentals and insights into advanced materials. After a course, they are available to answer questions.

Enrollment - SYS-ED DB2 Courses are NOT for Everyone
No one is allowed to enroll in a SYS-ED mainframe course, without a consultation with our Director of Education. We review the operational objectives and project specifications for the organization evaluating whether to send its employee for the training. The employee is only allowed to register if they have the appropriate background corresponding to the appropriate learning path.

DB2 Training in New York, at Your Office, or via the Web
SYS-ED DB2 courses are held at our modern, fully equipped training center in Manhattan and in conjunction with training partners in North America and Europe. If you prefer, we'll arrange tailored mainframe training on-site at your organization’s facilities inclusive of mobile computer classroom set-up. On-site mainframe courses can include the identical workshops, case studies, and hands-on approach as the mainframe training we offer in New York.

For additional information including outlines, availability of private courses, references, and course customization, contact David Shapiro at our New York office at 212-564-9147 or register online.
