<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The global Mainframe Computing Workforce has had thousands of lines of press dedicated to it over the last decade. “The Mainframe Skills Crisis is Looming!” everyone fretted. "Will it be another Y2K?" Though the issue of the most experienced mainframers retiring has been a real one, it has turned out to be more <i>“tidal”</i> than <i>"tidal wave"</i>!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Through all the mainframer retirements, the promotions of the mainframers left behind, and the hiring of the z Next Generation, there has been one key factor missing in the mainframe computing industry. IBM has not had a set of industry recognized, official IBM z Systems Mainframe Credentials for personnel to earn and display their IBM endorsed z Systems Mainframe skills and knowledge.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Until now!</b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">“A high tide raises all boats” the old saying goes, and now for the first time there is a broad spectrum of 30 Official IBM Mainframe Credentials that, earned and proudly displayed by mainframers everywhere, will serve to raise the skill and knowledge level of the overall global Mainframe Computing workforce.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Released February 17th, these 30 IBM z Systems Mainframe Credentials for Mainframe Application Programming, Mainframe Operations, Mainframe Specialists, Mainframe Security and Mainframe Storage are the new Mainframe Computing career benchmarks.</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Read more about the IBM Open Badge Program <a href="https://www-03.ibm.com/services/learning/ites.wss/zz-en?pageType=page&c=M425350C34234U21" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">here</a>.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">IBM Offers hundreds of badges overall, with 35 being Mainframe specific. Search for the 30 new Mainframe badges (& 5 old mainframe badges) <a href="https://www-03.ibm.com/services/learning/ites.wss/zz-en?pageType=badgesearch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">here</a> using the term "mainframe".</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mainframe Organizations should utilize these Official IBM Mainframe Credentials to exponentially increase the effectiveness and validity of their Mainframe Workforce Training Programs, as well as insuring their Mainframe Workforce is at or above IBM endorsed, objective industry standards.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mainframe Professionals should begin earning these Official IBM Mainframe Credentials now! They are the recognized, respected and valued benchmark for z Systems Mainframe Knowledge and Skills in the global Mainframe Computing Industry! They offer recognition by your Organization, by your Peers, and by the Industry as a whole, for your Mainframe Skills and Knowledge! They insure you stand out from your Peers in an industry that is currently searching for its best and its brightest!</span>Interskill Learning, Inc.http://www.blogger.com/profile/01163270956146432359noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6642876417570734002.post-37197020010904034172016-07-18T17:05:00.000-07:002016-07-18T17:05:23.823-07:00New and Updated Mainframe Training Courses Released This Quarter by Interskill Learning<div data-contents="true">

Compuware did a similar study in April 2012 and found that 71% of CIOs were worried about the mainframe skills shortages looming due to the first set of baby boomers reaching their retirement age.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the recent study, 70% of the 350 CIOs are concerned with the lack of mainframe training and knowledge transfer will be an issue and risk. What was a bit more alarming is that 39% of those CIOs have no plans to address this risk. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The survey also shows a few interesting statistics:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">88% believe their mainframe would remain a key business asset for at least the next ten years</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">81% see their mainframe running new and different workloads driven heavily by distributed applications</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">78% see the mainframe enabling innovation</span></li>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So given these new findings, this is a perfect opportunity for future mainframers or existing ones, to get the proper training they will need to combat this serious shortage. <span lang="en" xml:lang="en">Since 1993, across a global client base of over 1,500 companies, <a href="http://www.interskill.com/" target="_blank">Interskill Learning</a> has proven our expertise at developing and delivering training solutions that form the backbone of our clients' employee training on these mission critical systems. </span></span><br />
