Did you look at the online and instructor-led courses that are listed,
along with cities and dates, at the Web site I provided? All that
information is available online, and it's quite detailed. If a particular
class or provider is not proceeding with a course, then just go to the next
most convenient on the list. Here are the steps to find this information:

1. Go to https://www.ibm.com/services/learning

2. Click on "Find Learning."

3. In the search box type in your search term, for example:

CICS administration

and press Enter.

4. You'll see a list of course codes and titles. You can filter this list
in various ways by clicking on the checkboxes, for example the
"Instructor-led" checkbox if you want a formal class. Course code WM816G is
one of the CICS administration courses, for example. Let's look at that, so
click on that course (on the title).

5. In the page that appears, scroll down to see the list of upcoming
sessions. For example, there's an online/virtual edition of that course
beginning on March 25, 2019, which you can take from practically anywhere.
Click on the Start Date header to sort by date. I see (for example) a
classroom/in-person edition of that course also beginning on March 25,
2019, in Bangalore, India. For any course offering you're interested in
attending, click on the plus symbol (green circle), and you should see an
Enroll link. Click on that link. Let me try that now for the WM816G course
starting on March 25, 2019, in Bangalore

6. Yes, that takes me to another IBM page with a referral link, and then
when I click on that link I'm directed to the course provider's Web site
with details on the specific class offering, class fee information, and
their contact details for enrollment. It all works.

If you're still having trouble, please post a follow-up, but you received
lots of excellent pointers already, including this one. I hope it helps.

Dear All,

We tried talking to IBM local representative in our region for these
training course but they don't have any training schedule and they still
trying to find the same.

If any one of us can provide more detail about schedule training for (CICS
& IMS admin) will be highly appreciated.

Re: CICS and IMS Training

2019-02-18 Thread Timothy Sipples
A few more ideas:

1. IBM provides a little bit of free "hands on" access to CICS and IMS
through the IBM Z Trials Program, available here:

https://www.ibm.com/it-infrastructure/z/resources/trial

These hands on exercises are for specific functional areas of the two
products.

2. If you are a qualified student then you can sign up for the free Master
the Mainframe Learning System. The Learning System is kept online almost
year round, and I believe it offers CICS and IMS installations for
self-study exploration. Students can also optionally compete in the Master
the Mainframe Contest which uses the same system.

https://www.ibm.com/it-infrastructure/z/education/master-the-mainframe

3. Education is one of the authorized uses in the IBM Z Development and
Test Environment's license, so that's another choice -- get a proper IBM Z
DTE license (or licenses) then self-study in groups or individually.

https://www.ibm.com/us-en/marketplace/z-systems-development-test-environment

4. Have you checked the IBM Training Web site? There are plenty of course
listings, including upcoming classroom courses in several countries. Here's
the main landing page:

Check out Marist College.  They partner with IBM and provide several mainframe 
classes in IMS/CICS/VTAM/z/OS etc...

http://idcp.marist.edu/enterprisesystemseducation/zosprogramoverview.html

they are remote training I believe

Re: CICS and IMS Training

2019-02-18 Thread Wayne Bickerdike
I ran a CICS training course about 6 months ago.

There were a few parties involved but start by asking your IBM rep.

The classroom was a third party provider, the training organisation was
another and somewhere in the food chain was IBM.

IBM have a remote lab and their materials are locked down, so you get a
student ID for each student and the instructor gets yet another set of
material.

This class was run from Canberra, Australia.
