My extremely unhelpful advice ? Chuck them in the deep end !
When I was 20 my lovely German boss said write a channel program to scan the 
CA-1 TMC for some criteria.
Many weeks later with BALR and USING and whatever and a hardcopy IPCS manual it 
worked and that's the most complex thing I've ever written.
Who was that kid ?

Never got around to BXLE - which was, reputedly, worthy of a merit badge in 
wider circles.

I then escaped his clutches to the much nicer VTAM team.
