Depends.
For just 'pure' sql, you do not need an oracle database at all. Even with MySQL you can learn the SQL.
If you intend to learn Oracle SQL/PL.SQL, learning in the latest version helps. Else you need to upgrade yourself about the new features in the latest versions. For example, the better use of analytic functions , execute immdiated,dbms_stats etc does count a lot/
For Topics/Features in Database administration and concepts
there is a bigtime difference between the above mentioned versions.
