I went to a technical college starting around 1971 at the Milwaukee Area Technical College. I took the Business Data Processing associate degree program. They didin't teach systems programming, but they had an excellent program teaching Cobol, Assembler, RPG, database, PL/1, Utilities and JCL, etc.
Of course now, I don't think they teach anything mainframe, except maybe a Cobol course.
