This was a great refresher for my COBOL skills. The only thing I would suggest is a bit more practice writing some code.

I am distracted by errors in the course. Week 3 quiz scores 2 (two) questions incorrectly. 1) The correct answer to the upper-case('Hello World!) is marked as incorrect. 2)There is no correct solution offered to the display 100 thru 200. One of the wrong answers is scored as correct. I want a perfect score on this course. Please fix these issues. Otherwise, I liked the videos: good balance of information and humor. And you should warn uses NOT to use CHROME browser - it trashes the lab documents - readable but looks bad.

The content was great and Jeff Bisti was quite engaging and, at times, entertaining. The only reason I didn't give the course five stars is I wasn't able to get much help either from the stack or course discussion threads. It would be helpful to either have a bank of Q and A (quite extensive) or someone I could email to ask questions as I went along.

This was good once I had VS set up. That was not bad except for getting the password. The whole thing with slack was confusing and not explained well. Once I had the password things fell into place. Once I had the whole VS setup in gear I really liked it

Very recommendable course, clear and simple. However, I expected more complicate exercises and be forced to investigate deeply into the documentation. But it´s ok to get a first contact with this language.

Very interesting course with both theory & practice. It is a good starting point to get your hand dirty with COBOL.

Good information, but I expected to be able to have an assignment to completely write a code start to finish. It doesn't seem to tell you how to start one, just edit existing. It's slightly disapointing. I originally learned COBOL on an IBM mainframe and am uncertain about VS code use to begin a program. I guess I'll have to try on my own, but the course should have covered it at least a bit.

The videos are great really informative not too heavy and entertaining. However I had significant trouble trying to use the IBM systems to be able to run code. The support is very hit and miss with out dated instructions and the insistence on using slac for support, where response time is very slow. I so fat have not been able to actually try any of the examples.

There are a few issues with Labs not being in the correct spots considering what's covered in the videos/readings, but otherwise a good course. Worth noting that the mainframe is down for maintenance on some Sundays and the Zih_bot does not function properly when the mainframe is down so if you want to start this course, try not to do it on a Sunday.
