RE: ** OCP for 9i requirements -- Instructor Led Class is a

I heard from an Oracle instructor that some idiots were bragging about how they passed the OCP without logging in once. This distressed some important people, so this requirement was added. I asked if this meant each instructor was tasked with ensuring each student logged in, and he just smiled.

"Important Program Announcement: Oracle University Hands-On Course Requirement
Oracle customers and business partners are demanding hands-on experience - with all aspects of Oracle's database - from their Oracle Certified Professionals. In order to meet our commitment to our customers and constituents, Oracle University has recently made a significant investment in its Certification Program. Three distinct changes are being rolled out with the goal of increasing the level of quality of our certification skill and ability benchmarks:
********Scenario-based testing in all Oracle9i DBA Certified Professional exams .
********Instructor-led class requirement for candidates starting on the Oracle9i DBA Certified Professional credential exam path. ********A new hands-on Masters Practicum Exam for the Oracle9i Database Administrator Certified Master credential. "

<http://www.oracle.com/education/certification/index.html?dba9i_ocp.html>

"Instructure-led class" is a requirement.

You CAN take the Online Training to _prepare_ for the Exams. But you MUST attend at least one Instructor-led class to qualify for the certification.

Are you sure that the on-line version qualifies as fulfilling the pre-requisite ? I thought that

the pre-requisite is "at least one Instructor Led Training".

do a search for certification. Its all explained there. You can take an online course for $300. If your company is an oracle partner the course is free.

My understanding is that you need to take a class that corresponds to one of the four OCP exams, which are all 5-day classes. The in-classroom versions run $2500 and the on-line versions run $1250. Oracle partners get a 35% discount (advantage and certified advantage partners may get a larger discount).

Hi,

  For taking Oracle9i OCP exam is it necessary to have attended a Oracle course by Oracle University. What is the minimum? Is any small course good enough? Can someone who has gone through this provide details? Thank you
