a trained programmer to develop & maintain RPG IV programs written using the latest features & teqniques
available in the version 5 compiler.
Audience
The student should have attended at least an introductory course to programming such as one of those
available at technical colleges. The student is not taught the concepts of programming . Experienced
programmers who are new to i5 (iSeries) should also attend this class. Examples of other programming
languages are BASIC,COBOL, or RPG II. This class is not designed for RPG III Programmers who want to learn
RPG IV.
