Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Oracle Masters exam
I though about trying to figure out how to get it to be a write off...
I'm not sure how taking an advanced class will help me to pass the test... I kind of would like to take it just to see if I can... but I really don't want to be doing it just to drum up Oracle revenue.

I was just looking into this. If I understand it correctly, you have to take 2 'advanced' classes =>$2000-$5000 total (depending on which courses) and then you have to pay $2000 just to take the practicum. This might be the real deal and an exciting achievement to work towards but I for one know that my company won't be shelling the $$$ out and my pockets are nowhere near that deep.
It's too bad. It seems like it would be fun.

So, it's nothing like OCP where you get the certification when you spew out
certain amount of the green stuff? I wonder how long will it take before
seeing
oracle masters who don't know how to take a hot backup.

And having sat through the beta of the masters exam, let me reiterate what Reichert said in the article. You really do have to have the hands on experience to pass it. I've been using Oracle for something like 15 years now, and training others in the DBA world for 11 or so of those 12 years, and this was the hardest exam I've ever sat through.
