Unemployment systems across the United States are so outdated that they need to be updated. However, there are not many COBOL programmers who can help. To help train programmers, IBM is launching a COBOL training initiative.
IBM hopes to bring back old programmers in the swing of the things.
There is a new forum called "Calling all COBOL Programmers," intended to help new programmers connect with veterans.
There is another forum called "COBOL Technical Forum," where active and experienced COBOL programmers are available to provide free advice and expertise.
IBM is also building a brand new open-source COBOL training resource. The curriculum was created with an unnamed higher education institute and it will be available next week for anyone at no charge.
