IBM readies SOA skills curricula
IBM is working with Georgetown University to address the current IT skills shortage in the United States and advance SOA.
The two organizations at an event in Washington, DC are announcing two curricula, one for IT professionals and one for undergraduates and graduates, which are designed to teach about SOA. The SOA Curricula for IT professionals features a three-day workshop focused on "real world" SOA skills while the curricula for students features an opportunity to take courses as part of a Computer Science major to learn SOA basics.
The SOA Curricula is expected to start next spring. IBM WebSphere integration middleware will be featured in the courses.
Parts of the curricula will be available to members of the IBM Academic Initiative, which includes a network of 1,900 universities worldwide. In addition to working with Georgetown, IBM also is aligned with the College of Charleston and George Mason University to develop curricula addressing the pending workplace skills shortage.
