Future mainframers The IBM Student Mainframe Contest This fall semester, IBM is running the Student Mainframe Contest across the U.S. and Canada (excluding Quebec). No experience with mainframes is necessary. In fact, the contest is designed for students with little or no mainframe experience, increasing with difficulty as the contest progresses. Students just need to bring drive and competitive spirit and they will be ready to compete. |
