EDUCATION

"Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself."
- John Dewey

Empowering Students for Enterprise IBMi and Power Systems

What is it about?

Picture 3.png

It’s about getting you introduced to the real world of Enterprise Computing through the medium of Automation, Integration and Modernisation.

This industry is in need of your energy, enthusiasm and ideas, and it can open doors to large, well established businesses where you can develop your careers.

 Working with DIRECT access to Powerful, Enterprise IBM Servers and working across Wide Area Networks, you will gain experience of Enterprise Operating systems like IBM i, World Class databases like DB2, modern tools like IIoT, SQL and other tools that will be of immense value to you in your careers going forward.

Well...

 

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A PROGRAMMER! 

 

With these tools, programmers can incorporate their own code whilst non-programmers will touch very little code.  There is always another way, and the tools provide just that.

It works for technical students wanting to improve their capabilities, crossover students wanting to  cover a little more IT to augment their primary studies, and students that just feel the need to understand the modern enterprise world of IT.

Who is the course for?

Our Students Say

OO 15_edited.jpg
This right here is one of the highlights of my Masters program at the University of Wolverhampton!!! I came for a degree but got an extra (very important certificate) courtesy of the i-UG - IBM i User Group

I got to learn about a very powerful IBM software called Node-red, a visual programming tool that simplifies the connection and automation of devices, services, and data flows on the internet, and I was able to use this tool for my project dissertation where I built a fire prevention system - Project Fire Alarm.

Thanks to this powerful tool, my colleagues and I brought some amazing ideas to life, and I am genuinely thankful for the opportunity to be part of the entire project.
