Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Oracle Masters exam
With respect to all of you out there... I hear so many complaints about
greedy Oracle, and about having to take a class to get certified and the
dollar cost of that. I remind you folks that Oracle is a for profit venture.
It's not Oracle's responsibility to make anything affordable. It's the
responsibility of Oracle to generate revenue, it is the expectation of
Oracle shareholders (of which I am one) that Oracle will do such a thing. I
don't care if Larry is the 6th richest guy in the universe, so what? Why
does that compel him to give you anything?
It's all pure market driven. If people stop signing up for classes or OCP exams, Oracle will in quick fashion figure out why and change things. If people keep signing up for classes and taking the OCP, then viola, they have hit the sweet spot and will generate some revenue too.
Socialism doesn't work folks, let's face it. If the OCP Masters credentials are worth the money, then spend it. If they are not, don't spend it. If enough people don't spend the money, then something will happen. Thats how a market driven economy works.
