Check out the IBM Courses. Search for Datastage. I have been on the DS EE Essentials and Advanced. Their ok. The Essential will help if your new to the product, but experience and trial and error out way the courses. As for installation, ask IBM to assist. You will gain most of your experience from this Forum. Become a member, it is worth the cost.

IBM has a version 8 class for essentials, and will be releasing an advanced class sometime soon. I have no information about whether or not they are planning an administration class - contact IBM Learning Services. That said, the version 7.5 classes for advanced and administration have a high degree of overlap into version 8.

Ray,
I have been to the courses for EE. They have an essential and advanced. They are working on the EE administration course. The problem with these courses is, if the instructor is good, you benefit otherwise it's an expensive venture. My colleagues took the advanced course in Toronto, Canada and it was horrible. The instructor had limited knowledge and didn't complete all the training info. Complaint were filed and that all I know. I went to Chicago and got lucky because the instructor was pretty good.

I've also had the 8.0 essentials training. While the course has potential, they try to teach everything so fast, the memory is gone before it has a chance to sink in!
Let's just say that good instructors are hard to come by these days.
He would not cover any information on the install or tuning, as that is considered advanced and they want you to take yet another course for that.
I have found that DSXchange is the best forum for all things DataStage.
Since the ball was dropped some years ago, DSXchange and the posters have saved the day.
Well worth the price of admission.

OK, I'll take your word for it.
The most recent advanced class I've seen is for version 7.5 (course code DX436). And there's nothing newer mentioned in IBM's Course Catalog for Jan-Jun 2008. There is, however, an essentials class for version 8 (course code DX444).
Based on IBM's course coding conventions, the course code for an advanced EE class for version 8 would be DX446. A "whole of IBM" web search failed to locate this course code.
So, if you've been sold a version 8 advanced class, can you please let me know the course code, and when and where it was offered?

You are correct. DX436 refers to 7.5.1 EE. But in general, the course still deals with the parallel version of the product. 7.5.1 has many similarities with the 8.0.1 version. We discussed partitioning, routines and most of the components that reside in 8.0.1. I would consider DX436 can be considered the DS EE advanced course.
