I am looking for some training in ILE RPG and would appreciate some suggestions.
I have over 20 years programming on the AS/400 and iSeries using the various incarnations of RPG IV, III, etc. Many years ago I started developing in Synon and continued with that until I left IT over a year. So now I'm starting to look at job opportunities, and I frequently see requirements for writing RPGLE. With Synon I usually didn't do any RPG coding. So now I need just need to learn the ILE concepts.

Re: Seeking recommendations for ILE RPG training
There are myriad sources for picking up RPG IV and ILE, but Jim Buck's book is probably the best option. There will be some bits you can skip past based on your old RPG knowledge and understanding of the system in general. You can find the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Programming-ILE- ... 1583473793
