Now there is a bright feature for IBM COBOL & ENTERPRISE COBOL.

If you new to Mainframes, try to learn Enterprise JAVA and CICS/TS also.

if you know the cobol .you better concentrate on file handling .in this KSDS and ESDS are key factors.you do more programming on these. you learn jcl and DB2 also. now a days there is a nice market for IMSDB try to learn that.
