Hello everyone! First, I can't believe that I am sending this announcement out as a die-hard Michigan Wolverine fan. BUT, it is Oracle related and it is Gaja who is the trainer.

Here are the particulars:

The Ohio Oracle User group is presenting a two-day

"Performance Management Seminar in Columbus on March 25-26. Gaja Vaidyanatha, who is teaching the seminar, is one of the most recognized experts in Oracle performance tuning. You may have read one of his books, Oracle Performance Tuning 101 by Oracle Press, or Oracle Insights: Tales of the Oak Table. Or, you may have seen him present at Collaborate or Oracle Open World.
This seminar is offered at a much lower cost than what Oracle charges for their classes, and with Gaja teaching it magnifies the value per dollar. The details of the seminar are below and on our website, ooug.org. If you need recommendations for lodging in Columbus please let us know. Hope to see you in Columbus next month. "
