SYS-ED's mainframe training services provides content structured for learning which is programmatically updated and distributed. Mainframe courses are selectively being made available in a web-based delivery medium. The web-based training service is distance-learning as an extension of our instructor-led classroom schedule. At the present time, our web-based training is streamlined in terms of automation and graphics in order to minimize bandwidth limitations and address issues which will simplify security. Value added support for both our instructor-led and web-based mainframe training is provided through our software specific and industry categorized websites.

Enrollment in a course is contingent upon an interview with SYS-ED's Director of Education.

Mainframe Training Program

SYS-ED offers tailored "entry-level" and "fast-track" mainframe training programs.

	Standard entry-level training programs consist of four components: z/OS operating system, programming skills, programming language, and system software. These programs have been developed and refined over a quarter century of consultancy and teaching and draw upon the SYS-ED courseware library.
	Tailored fast-track programs are comprised of course modules selected by the client organization: topics, examples, workshops, validation assessments, and duration. Many clients also elect to incorporate an educational consulting component which reflects their standards and implementation strategy for project development.

Mainframe Courses in New York
SYS-ED's mainframe courses are tough, but they're worth it. Our challenging "hands-on" mainframe training provides a foundation and framework for Fortune 1000 companies, government municipalities, healthcare providers, software houses, and consulting companies to meet their mainframe staffing requirements and acquire specialized mainframe skillsets.¹

Courseware
SYS-ED's mainframe courseware is highly respected in the IT field. We draw upon our extensive library of courseware, sample programs, and case studies to explain, demonstrate, and teach the real-world mainframe information technology. Our mainframe curricula include industry standard and consultancy derived content. We have the capability to provide tailored workshops and integrated training programs on z/OS, z/VSE, z/VM, and third party emulation workbench platforms.

Teaching is Our Business
Most computer training companies are divisions of large software companies or consulting companies. Not SYS-ED. Our only goal is to provide world class mainframe training for motivated IT professionals - no more and no less. Because we're independent, we're free to concentrate on teaching - and since 1980 we have been doing it very well.

Our Teachers Know How to Teach
SYS-ED instructors combine teaching skills with broad practical experience as consultants. Our instructors average 30 years of experience in the mainframe environment - operating systems, programming languages, 3rd party utilities and development aids, and system software. And they know how to teach it. We teach not only "how to", but "why", building a solid foundation in fundamentals and insights into advanced materials. After a course, they are available to answer questions.

Enrollment - SYS-ED Mainframe Courses are NOT for Everyone
No one is allowed to enroll in a SYS-ED mainframe course, without a consultation with our Director of Education. We review the operational objectives and project specifications for the organization evaluating whether to send its employee for the training. The employee is only allowed to register if they have the background corresponding to the appropriate learning path.
