DBA Training for Beginner

Hi All,
I have worked as a Sr.Oracle Developer so far, I have done 8i and 9i DBA OCP certifications. Now my company gave an opportunity to work as an administrator, and also offered to go for DBA training. I need your
suggestion in choosing the DBA training courses, and also what all things I should get prepared before attending this training. Any suggestion that you could share or give would definitely help me.
Thanks

Why you are looking for DBA training as a beginner when you are already certified in 8i,9i tracks? Going with that, you should be already knowing what a DBA needs to do and all what you should be going for is not a training but to look for the New Features guides for releases 10g, 11g and since yesterday, even for 12c .

  • Can i use "Oracle Database 12c: Performance Management and Tuning " training for getting certification on "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning 1Z0-054"

    i have taken "Oracle Database 12c: Performance Management and Tuning new" training from oracle university. Now i would like to get certified on "Oracle Database 11g: Performance Tuning 1Z0-054" exam. Is it possible ?

    I essentially endorse and refer you to Matthews' and John's post above.
    I would differ with slightly with Matthew because my guess is you would often be able to use like for like 12c training for an 11g certification ( I believe there are precedents).  BEFORE ANYONE ASKS THE OTHER WAY DOESN'T HAPPEN.
    .... but totally concur with Matthew you would ill advised to procede on that basis without one of:
    - This being advertised as possible on the website : e.g. https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=654&get_params=p_id:169 ... option 2 show courses.
    - Confirmation from Brandye
    - Confirmation from an Oracle Certification Support Web Ticket ( http://education.oracle.com/pls/eval-eddap-dcd/OU_SUPPORT_OCP.home?p_source=OCP )
    ... The more common (and in my opinion usually better) way would be get your 11g DBA OCP ( or higher first) and then take the 1z0-054.  I am almost certain they will accept your 12c course for the 11g DBA OCP.
    If you are choosing the route of not being a 11g (or 12c ) DBA OCP first but are on option 2 and relying on the course for certification then the issue is more in the balance and you are even more strongly advised to get confirmation before proceding (remember if the rules need to be changed for you only then any profit out of the exam is lost).
    In general my understanding is Oracle would prefer to encourage people to train on the latest version of product that is available for training  and will prefer to avoid restrictions which would cause you to train at a lower version.  ( This is simply my guess at Oracle University Policy ... personal opinion only).
    Having said all I have said I'd encourage you to go with the advice of the earlier two posts.

  • Can I attend Oracle 10g DBA course & attempt DBA Certification for 11g

    Hi,
    I am already OCP-PLSQL and want to attempt OCP-DBA stream. I enquired at various oracle education centers and came to know that all are conducting courses for Oracle-10g.
    So can I attend Oracle 10g DBA course (Mandatory Course) and attempt DBA Certification for 11g. (1ZO-052 and 1ZO-053)
    Thanks,

    Thanks,
    Vikrant PatilYou can do these thing, and Oracle will take your money for it, but you will receive neither 11g DBA OCP certication nor 10g DBA OCP Certification at the end of it. So it isnt what you would ant to do.
    Oracle Unviersity would provide the 11g DBA training courses ... No problem.
    however I suspect what you term oracle education centers are probaby institutes offering WDP Courses at 10g DBA (on the cheap). See http://workforce.oracle.com
    If you do 10g training then that will only be valid for 10g DBA OCP Certification .. so you would need to take 1z0-042 and 1z0-043 (I guess you already have an SQL Exam pass). Then 1z0-050 can upgrade it to 11g DBA OCP.
    (Note that it does not affect you, but the converse is typically true .... version X+1 training will often be acceptable for a version X certification.)

    You should be able to drill down to training locations from this screen: [http://education.oracle.com/education/html/oumaps/locationSearcher.html?p_org_id=28&lang=US] aafter selecting India.
    In theory you should be able to find out about WDP institutions here:
    [https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/new_home.main]
    [https://workforce.oracle.com/pdf/html_rd/wdp_stu_reg.html?wdp9]
    However this part of the site is a little disfunctional and may send you to Nigeria and other places when looking for institutions in India, and you might find hacking through screen more helpful:
    (Tip: accept the agreement and search for instituations containing 'a' in the name, then repeat with 'e' then 'i' then 'o' then 'u'.)
    --> [https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/rd_sel_onchange.main?cmd=s_set_lang]
    The WDP contact for india cna be found here: [https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/rd_psp_contact]
    Rumours reach me (here in UK) WDP training in India can be cheap but of variable quality, you need to weigh up cost/risk/benefit against other options and be sure what the institution is offering. Having said that it will often be the only viable choice for most people.
    Edited by: bigdelboy on 20-Aug-2009 14:52:
    Actually I just came accross this link for WDP that was courtesy of Aman some time ago: [http://www.oracle.com/global/in/education/maps/oracle_wdp.html]. Its probably more accurate for WDP providers that some other pages.

  • Training for 1z0-051?

    Hello all,
    I have a requirement by my employer to achieve Oracle Certification.  I passed 1z0-052 last week after studying off and on for the last year and a half.  Next up is 1z0-051 or 061.
    Fortunately my employer is funding a training class for this exam.  We have 11g in our environment, so it is the 051/052 track I started on.  I noticed on the 051 exam page that the recommended training is no longer offered.  I'm planning to take the training class linked from the 061 page (Oracle Database 12c: Introduction to SQL Ed 1.1).  Is this adequate/sensible training for the 051 exam?  Or should I scrap 051 in favor of 061?  I see that either will count towards OCA/OCP. 
    I am speaking out of honest ignorance here, but it seems that the material covered for 061 is completely applicable to 051.  Any sage advice for me?  Am I off track in my assessment? 
    Many thanks for any help you can offer.
    -Alan

    The 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-061 exams have about a 95% commonality in topics.  The 'Introduction' section was added to 1Z0-061 and the 'Creating other schema objects' section that was in 1Z0-051 has been removed in 061.  As such, the 061 training should prepare you for the vast majority of the 1Z0-051 exam.
    That said -- there is no reason not to simply take the 1Z0-061 exam if that's what you are taking the training for anyway.  I generally consider picking one over the other to be largely a toss up. Last week someone had the Oracle Press book for 1Z0-051 and was asking about taking 061.  I suggested going with 051 since they had the study materials for it.  In your case, the opposite applies, so I would suggest that the 1Z0-061 exam would probably be the (slightly) better choice.
