HN Academy has aggregated all Hacker News stories and comments that mention Coursera's "COBOL Programming with VSCode" from IBM.
Course Description

Professor Tak Auyeung of American River College, said it beautifully, “A programming language is not a fashion statement” it is used for a purpose. Whether it is to add new features, modify logic, create APIs to integrate it into other applications, or implement modern development practices, businesses around the world need application developers who know COBOL.

This introductory COBOL course helps a novice learn the Structure of COBOL programs, Data types & Variable Handling, Intrinsic Functions, Branching logic and more. The goal of the course is to enable the participant to be able to write basic COBOL programs. This is a fantastic compliment to the IBM z/OS Practitioner path for the IBM Mainframe.

Join the COBOL Fridays web series. These webinars are curated for first-time programmers, lifelong learners, and anyone who's interested in learning COBOL. http://ibm.biz/cfcoursera

On successful completion of this course, learners are eligible to earn their COBOL Programming with VSCode badge.

https://www.coursera.org/learn/cobol-programming-vscode is one place to start. :)

If you're done that, I presume there's also https://www.coursera.org/professional-certificates/ibm-z-mai... though it's starting to feel even more like marketing after seeing all that.
