Uh, Steve, Alan isn't talking about how to set up JCL. He's talking about searching the archives for information on DD DUMMY statements to turn off products, and that's not quite as free form. I think Alan knows how to set up the JCL.

How about "z/OS JCL and Utilities" - 3 days; where it becomes clear soon that JCL is [somewhat] free form; or, if managment won't pay for courses about topics you are already supposed to know, consider "Advanced Topics in z/OS JCL" - 3 days which includes the content from the first course as a very high speed review and adds a lot more.
