Murach's Mainframe COBOL
This is the latest edition of our classic COBOL book that has set the standard for structured design and coding since the mid-1970s. It provides the core content needed for going on to CICS or DB2, and it introduces your trainees to required mainframe tasks, like working with JCL.
In fact, every topic is chosen and presented based on the assumption that the trainee will be working in a mainframe shop. So the book has a practical slant that's hard to find anywhere else.
