Take a look at the sentence again:

Jacques, a self-taught computer whiz, always hates going to his Introduction to Microcomputers class the reason is that both his textbook and professor are at least a year behind when they discuss software and internal components.

No punctuation of any kind is necessary between behind and when. That both his textbook and professor are at least a year behind is a subordinate clause. When they discuss software and internal components is another subordinate clause. When you attach one subordinate clause to the end of a second, you seldom need punctuation.
