Participation is open to all Destination z members with submissions due by May 4, 2012. Soon after our expert panel will select the top three submissions. The finalists will be featured in the DzInsider enewsletter as well as on destinationz.org.
Finalists will be selected based on their usefulness and insight. Submissions can range from the highly technical, such as commands, shortcuts, etc., to the best bit of advice you received when starting out as a mainframe professional.
The contest is sponsored by Destination z partner Trident Services.
