Our mission

Our Mission

At MainframeEDU, our mission is to preserve and advance critical mainframe knowledge by educating the next generation of professionals. We're committed to bridging the widening skills gap in enterprise computing through practical, industry-relevant training that prepares students for immediate success in their careers.

We believe that mainframe technology remains a cornerstone of modern business infrastructure, and we're dedicated to ensuring these systems continue to be supported by skilled professionals well into the future.

Through our specialized curriculum, we aim to transform passionate learners into confident mainframe developers capable of maintaining, optimizing, and modernizing mission-critical systems across various industries.

Our Story

MainframeEDU began with a simple observation: while organizations continued to rely heavily on mainframe systems for their most critical operations, the pool of skilled mainframe developers was steadily shrinking as experienced professionals retired.

In 2018, our founders—a group of mainframe veterans with decades of combined experience—decided to address this challenge head-on. They established MainframeEDU in Limassol, Cyprus, choosing the location for its emerging status as a technology hub and its strategic position bridging European and Middle Eastern markets.

What started as a small training operation with a single introductory course has since expanded to a comprehensive educational institution offering multiple specialized courses, from basic fundamentals to advanced system optimization techniques.

Over the years, we've formed partnerships with leading enterprises across banking, insurance, and government sectors, creating direct pathways for our graduates to enter the workforce. Our success is measured by the achievements of our alumni, who now maintain and modernize critical systems across the globe.

Today, MainframeEDU stands as a testament to our founders' vision—a thriving community of learners, instructors, and industry professionals united by their appreciation for mainframe technology and their commitment to its future.
