Part 1 introduces the contestants to the basic aspects necessary to get started with mainframe technologies and requires minimal time to complete. Part 2 on the other hand involves more steps for each tasks and usually takes a day or so to accomplish. The first 60 winners of Part 2 will receive monetary prize in recognition of their achievement. Lastly, part 3 is more in depth and may involve multiple programming challenges such as COBOL, REXX, JCL, etc. (depending on the questions set for the year's challenge). Past winners of Part 3 have receive gifts such as iPad, iPod, laptops or netbooks. Winners also receives an all expense paid trip to the IBM mainframe facility in Poughkeepsie, New York. The goal of the contest is to provide students with the opportunity to experience working with mainframes.

The North American contest has successfully completed 7 contests to date. == References ==
