Enterprise COBOL (e-COBOL) is emerging as a powerhouse for building agile and efficient enterprise applications. This versatile language offers significant advantages over its predecessor, traditional COBOL, allowing application programmers, team leaders, and analysts to build robust systems with unparalleled efficiencies. Learning e-COBOL will equip you with the skill set to develop scalable and maintainable software solutions, optimizing operational processes and driving organizational performance.
Our IBM Enterprise COBOL (e-COBOL) Programming Workshop is a five-day hands-on course that focuses on the core skills and best practices used to design, code, and maintain Enterprise COBOL (e-COBOL 4,5,6) applications.
Dive into five days of immersive learning that mixes engaging lectures with hands-on lab experience. The course is intricately designed to cover essential e-COBOL topics, including discerning the power of e-COBOL versus older COBOL languages, mastering the syntax and divisions, and exploring innovative features like internal sorts and multi-threading. You'll also delve into e-COBOL table design, best practices, and the built-in APIs for XML integration. The course also covers core topics such as array management, data access, subroutine construction, parameter passing, iterations, built in functions, internal sorting, and using e-COBOL as an object-oriented CLASS. Led by an industry expert, you'll find the content rich with real-world applicability.
The course is structured to ensure that the skills you acquire are immediately applicable. You’ll exit the course equipped to implement e-COBOL's specialized features into your projects to resolve intricate programming issues. This equips you not just as a coder, but as a strategic asset capable of steering projects aligned with organizational goals.
