We've all read of the impending demise of RPG green screen programmers (30+ years here). It has been suggested that we branch out into HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, Java, XML, SQL, etc. The list appears to be endless. The company I work for has NO interest in web based user interfaces. The folks who work in the customer service, order entry, accounting, and shipping areas have been here for years and years (they average 20+ years). They WANT the old green screen interface.
The short story is there is no opportunity to learn any of these "new" technologies here at work. Sure, I could grab one of the "learn (fill in the blank) in 24 hours" books and create my own personal website. But, in past experiences at job interviews, these kind of "development experiences" were not viewed in a good light. The interviewer is looking for solid business applications development in a business environment.
So, my question to all of you is, do you know of some kind of degree or certification program offered by an accredited institution that one could go through that would, with the previous 30+ years of developing business applications, help to offset the "looking for business development experience" issue?
