Hands-On Course Requirement

Beginning September 1, 2002, Oracle University will require that all candidates pursuing the Oracle9i DBA Certified Professional credential must attend one instructor-led course either inclass or online to receive certified status. To meet the requirement, candidates must attend a course offered at an Oracle University center or at an Oracle Authorized Education Center or Partner.
