The Oracle Certified Associate (OCA) certification is the first level of certification for Oracle Database Administrators (DBA). Individuals who hold this credential have demonstrated that they have mastered introductory Oracle skills and can perform foundation level tasks. It is necessary to hold this certification before moving on to the Oracle Certified Professional (OCP) level and ultimately the Oracle Certified Master (OCM) level.
Target audience
The target audience for the OCA certification is individuals who want to demonstrate their skill level and commitment to their careers as Oracle DBAs. Entry-level DBA's and individuals looking for a job as a DBA are prime candidates for the OCA credential.
Exam details and overview
Candidates must complete two exams in order to complete the requirements for the OCA credential. They have a choice of three exams for their first exam:

Candidates must correctly answer 66% of the questions for a passing score, however Oracle clearly states that the passing score may change without notice.
