# COBOL Programming Course #2 - Advanced Topics
2+
3+
This project is a set of training materials and labs for an Advanced Topics course on COBOL. Free and publicly available client tooling is used to interact with the mainframe environment allowing participants to easily leverage these technologies after the course.

5+
## How to get started
6+
7+
There are currently no official releases of COBOL Programming Course #2 - Advanced Topics. All content remains in development. We encourage you to view and contribute to the [book](COBOL%20Programming%20Course%20#2%20-%20Advanced%20Topics.md) :)

`Front_Matter.tex` contains the content before the table of contents. `COBOL Programming with VSCode.md` contains the body. The command combines the two, generates the section numbers and table of contents for the body, and outputs `COBOL Programming with VSCode.pdf`
