SUMMARY:VM Workshop (Columbus\, OH)
DESCRIPTION:The VM Workshop will take place on June 12-14 at The Ohio State University in Columbus\, Ohio. The group is a grassroots non-profit organization made up of customers\, ISVs\, and business partners with an interest in the use and growth of the z/VM platform\, Linux on IBM Z\, and VSE (z/VSE and VSEn). \nOpen Mainframe Project will be on-site at the event with a few sessions: \nEMMA: The Creation of a Mainframe Apprenticeship – Dr. Cameron Seay\, Adjunct Professor and Co-Chair of the COBOL Programming Course  \nThe Eli Madison Memorial Apprenticeship (EMMA) is a mainframe focused apprenticeship program. It uses the traditional apprenticeship model for technical roles. We feel this is THE solution to the “mainframe skills shortage” and have buy in from industry and the community at large. Currently involved are 3 mainframe ISVs\, 185 apprentices\, 6 university professors at 5 universities\, and 8 full time volunteers. EMMA is ready to do business. \nDispelling the Myths Around Open Source on the Mainframe – Len Santalucia\, CTO at Vicom Infinity\, a Converge Company and Chair of the Open Mainframe Project Governing Board \nWondering if Open Source is right for you and your organization? Don’t know what you don’t know? Is it myth or fact? Let the experts from within the Open Mainframe Project help you weed it all out. Fact or fiction\, we will help you understand why Open Source IS right for you and your organization. \nCheck out these sessions and more on the VM Workshop schedule here.
