Our original DB2 trainers included the best collection of authors and practitioners in the field: Shaku Atre, Pacifico Lim, David Silverberg, and Jonathan Clarke. Our collective database design principles and coding techniques were based upon the work done by Codd and Date. Many still teach with us today and it is their superb code, diagramming of control blocks and program logic and precise explanations which serve as the framework of our DB2 courses and DB2 training programs.

Oakwood Computing DB2 courses and DB2 workbooks are the best in the business. They reflect the insights and examples that can only be created by experienced systems consultants who have a thorough mastery of DB2 internal architecture and its evolutionary enhancements. When IT professionals leave a Oakwood Computing DB2 course, they have the documentation, reference cards, demonstration/walk-throughs, and programming to code and debug DB2 programs, perform administrative tasks, and optimize performance back on the job. Case and point, if your organization outsourced its DB2 coding and program maintenance to consulting companies in the 1980’s, it more than likely was Oakwood Computing which trained many of the consultants who did the actual design and coding!

Our DB2 training programs and DB2 courses reflect a nonpareil knowledge of the source code and melding of systems software technologies. In addition to the core OS/390 and z/OS DB2 coding and design courses, Oakwood Computing offers over 40 platform specific DB2 courses and DB2 training programs reflecting a comprehensive range of DB2 Universal Database operating systems: IBM mainframe, PC-Windows, UNIX, Java, and DB2 to XML. And yes, many of our courses are in the process of being made available through a distance or e-learning format.

Why Oakwood Computing for Your DB2 Training Requirements?

News for Immediate Release

Consulting companies recommend Oakwood Computing in conjunction with distance-learning products for DB2 UDB programming, database administration, and web enablement training.

z/OS Skills and Web Enablement Training Program

All IT personnel will need to learn new skills for the z/OS environment in order to implement the next generation of technologies – DB2 UDB, MQSeries, and WebSphere.  Training will cut across generations – some very experienced people will be learning web enablement technologies; while first generation IT staff will be using ISPF, JCL, and “tried and tested” mainframe programming languages, such as COBOL and DB2 systems software for the first time.

Training programs based upon the use of various training techniques have been chosen for suitability to the particular course material and audience as well as scheduling and class size requirements.

The following methods will be use for introductory material for personnel, most operator training, and programmer training on selected topics.

Program for Client A

• Distance learning will be used for introductory training for personnel, most operator training, and programmer training on selected subjects.
• Oakwood Computing in London will be used for their 4-day DB2 Java Programming, 4-day DB2 UDB: Systems Performance and Tuning, 4-day MQSeries System Administration, and 4-day WSAS: WebSphere Application Server.
• IBM Education Center offerings will be used for specialized systems programmer training.

The plan is to have three or four programmers and two or three people from tech support complete the distance-learning training and then take the Oakwood Computing instructor-led courses. Based upon feedback from this group, we will either confirm this mix or make adjustments as needed.

On a long range basis, we plan that all of the programmers and operators will be trained in both z/OS and the new web technologies during the period January through May or June. The exact schedule will depend on other workloads on various members of the staff. System programmer education would be mostly completed during this period, although specialized courses may be taken later in the year.

Real Hands-on Training
Oakwood Computing's mainframe programming training courses are tough, but they're worth it. Our challenging "hands-on" training immediately increases programming productivity by 50% or more for both business professionals new to mainframe programming and experienced mainframe programmers. We draw upon our extensive library of sample programs and case studies to explain, demonstrate, and implement real-world applications. This will translate into productivity enhancements which will be needed in order to implement business systems.

Wrote the Book
Oakwood Computing's course manuals are the best in the industry. They are comprehensive guides and programming models written especially for each course by our experienced instructors. They are thorough, clear, and well organized, and serve as desktop references long after the course. Our manuals are constantly updated to include new versions and more efficient programming methods. Oakwood Computing students also have access to our on-line reference books, sample programs, and training aids via the Internet.

Teaching is Our Only Business
Most computer training companies are divisions of large software companies or consulting companies. Not Oakwood Computing. Our only goal is to provide top-quality computer training for highly motivated professionals-no more and no less. Because we're independent, we're free to concentrate on teaching--and we do it very well.

All Our Teachers are Teachers
All Oakwood Computing instructors combine teaching skills with broad practical experience as consultants. Our instructors average 30 years of experience in the IBM mainframe environment – operating systems, programming languages, 3rd party utilities/ 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. Because teaching is a full-time commitment, there are no part-time instructors on our staff. When they're not in the classroom, they're busy writing or updating course manuals, developing training aids, improving techniques, even developing new courses. And they're available to students after the course for additional advice or support.

Our Place or Yours?
Oakwood Computing's courses are held at our modern, fully equipped training center in London and major cities in North America and Europe. If you prefer, we'll arrange on-site courses at your own computer installation, inclusive of mobile computer classroom set-up. On-site courses can include the same workshops, and case studies and hands-on approach as our restricted enrollment courses. Or can be customized to your particular application or project. In addition to DB2 UDB, Oakwood Computing’s 150 OS/390 and z/OS courses include operating systems and systems programming – (OS/390, VM, DOS/VSE), 15 programming languages, (COBOL, C, Assembler, FORTRAN, PL/1, JAVA, etc.) telecommunications (SNA, VTAM, Netview) systems software (VSAM, CICS, IMS, CSP, and MQSeries) and web enablement (CICS and WebSphere).
