Course Overview

COBOL (Common Business Oriented Language) was one of the earliest high-level programming languages. This course teaches the structure of the language and the writing of simple to moderately complex programs.In this we use flowcharts, pseudo code, and structure charts are used as design tools.This series examines the program structure, specifications, and instructions. Coding, compiling procedures, and compiler output are also covered. This training is highly customized to the client environment and includes programming standards and approved methods of structuring programs

At the end of the training, participants will be able to:
