Differences between OCA 10g and OCA 11g

Hi,
I am currently studying the OCA 10g Administration I but I have not taken the exam yet. I am also taking the SQL Expert exam but I dont think that is version specific.
I would like to know how different or what the differences are between the OCA 10g and 11g exams are as I fear that 10g will be out of date soon. I am considering just taking the 11g exam even though I have only studied 10g.
I had a look at both the syllabuses and they look pretty similar and was hoping someone could add some personal notations of their experience. I suspect and hope that the major differences would come at the OCP level.
I don't want to go to do OCP as I am only doing to obtain a good foundation for working on the functional side of financials.
Thanks in advance.
Luke

differences are between the OCA 10g and 11g exams
Different version different new features discussed. example : no ADR in the 10g, no invisible index in 10g, DRA etc.
Syllabus maybe the same, but features is different.
I suspect and hope that the major differences would come at the OCP level.
OCP is deeper than OCA. mostly OCA cover all features of the Oracle, and the OCP discussed about more advanced technique like RMAN, ASM, Memory Management, etc. but again 10g and 11g have different features.
That's why for 10g OCP who wants to upgrade become 11g OCP, has to follow 11g new features exam.

OCA 11g vs OCA 10g

I have the intention to pursue OCA but I am not sure if it would be worth it to try OCA 10g or maybe try OCA11g right away. Any help would be appreciated. Is there any material already for OCA 11g that is recommended.
Cheers

>> Hey man where i can i get free resources for preparing for 10g or 11g OCP.your help will be really appreciated
For your preparation tey the Student Guides/ILT (Instructor Led Training) Materials, which are developed by Oracle. These course materials are given to the students/candidates those who undergo the respective and correspondent courses from Oracle University/Any authorized Oracle Center. In general, all questions are asked in the exams from these materials topics. So, these ILTs are handy in preparing and passing the exams.
For sure no books or materilas are availble on the net for free to prepare for OCA/OCP Exams.
Only the free documents available place is.

OCA 10g OCA 11g ?

I gained my OCA 10g certification in 2007, is there such a thing as an upgrade exam from OCA 10g > OCA 11g, or do I have to start the 11g track from scratch ?

However IMHO if you view the topics for 10g OCA and 11g OCA you will see about 75%+ commonality so its not like you have to start from scratch, more like 2/3 to 3/4 the way up the hill.
If your final target is 11g OCP then you are obviously aware you could go 1z0-043 + 1z0-050 or 1z0-052 + 1z0-053 ..... with a hands on course being required either way. I don't wish to advise on which route would suit you best.

10g course completion of sql, admin1 and admin2, want to sit for ocp 11g

Hi all:
I have completed my courses for sql, admin 1 and admin 2 for oracle 10g.
I want to sit for the ocp 11g exam.
What should be the optimum/best/fastest way to sit for ocp 11g.
Please help......

Your post indicates that you have attended 10G courses, but not whether you have passed any certification tests. It is also not clear from your post whether the courses you took were from vendors that are accepted by Oracle for the hands-on requirement for an OCP. 10G courses, from an approved vendor or not, do not count directly towards the 11G OCP certification. In my reply I'm going to make two assumptions:
1 -- You have not taken any certification tests yet. This may not be true, but I would think that you'd have mentioned them rather than just the training if you had.
2 -- The training you took is from an approved vendor.
If the above two assumptions are true, then the "fastest way to sit for ocp 11g" is:
Take (and pass) the following exams to become an Oracle 10G OCP:
1Z0-051 -- Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I
1Z0-042 -- Oracle Database 10g: Administration I
1Z0-043 -- Oracle Database 10g: Administration II
Then complete the Oracle Education course submission form for the appropriate course(s) that meet the hands on requirement.
Once you pass all three tests and the course is approved, you will have the Oracle 10G DBA Certification.
Then take (and pass) the following exam to become an Oracle 11G OCP:
1Z0-050 -- Oracle Database 11g: New Features for Administrators
Alternately, you can take an 11G course that meets the hands-on requirement and take the 11G specific tests. Since this is likely to cost more than taking one additional test and will mean that in the end you will only be 11G certified rather than 10G and 11G, I think the outline above is likely preferable.

OCA11g to OCP 11g certification !

I have completed my OCA 11g certification. I would like to go for 11g OCP (i.e. IZO-053)
The constraints for 11g OCP are that candidates must complete one of the instructor-led online or in class courses below
•     Oracle Database 11g: Data Warehousing Fundamentals
•     Oracle 11g: RAC and Grid Infrastructure Administration Accelerated Release 2
•     Oracle Database: Develop PL/SQL Program Units Ed 1
•     Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop II Ed 2 LVC
•     Oracle Database 11g: Data Warehousing Fundamentals Ed 1 LVC
•     Oracle Database: Introduction to SQL
•     Oracle Database: Introduction to SQL - LVC
•     Oracle Database: Introduction to SQL/PLSQL Accelerated
•     Oracle Database: Introduction to SQL/PLSQL Accelerated - LVC
•     Oracle Database: SQL and PL/SQL Fundamentals
•     Oracle Database: SQL and PL/SQL Fundamentals - LVC
•     Oracle Database: Introduction to SQL/PLSQL Accelerated
•     Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I Release 2
•     Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I - LVC Release 2
•     Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop II Release 2
But the real problem is that Oracle Workforce program does not provide the training on any of the 11g courses.
My question is that will it be alright if I take in class training on Oracle Database: Introduction to SQL (i.e. 10g) through Oracle Workforce Program and appear for OCP 11g certification?
thnx in advance

SatishRightly or wrongly, as far as i know some WDP providers are provding WDP courses at 11g ... this may only be in some countries. (I think WDP only provides Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I and II), but WDP programme can be a law unto itself). It may be an eligible 11g SQL is now available via WDP ... which might make a mockery of hands on training).
( My understanding back a few years ago at 9i WDP has to complete a complete end-to-end training track .... he width of the training perhapa compensating for possibly more guarenteed quality training from OU.
Anyway to answer your question .... a 10g course will not be acceptable for 11g DBA certification. (However in general most 11g courses should be acceptable for 10g DBA or 9i DBA certification).

Thank you all and have a nice day!Hi and welcome to the forum!
There's no upgrade path for OCA certification. You have two choices:
- Pass 10gOCP exam and upgrade the whole OCP certification to 11g version (two exams - 10gOCP, 11gOCP upgrade)
- Start taking 11g exams (11g OCA and OCP)

Difference between Upgrade to Oracle 11g Exam and the OCP 11g exam

Is there a difference in the Oracle Database 11g exam and OCP 11g exam?
Say for example, i am an OCP 10g and I took the New Features Course for 11g. Then I will upgrade to OCP 11g
or
I will take all the courses for 11g then take OCP (do not worry, money is not an issue in this case)
Is there a difference between the two in terms of the examination?
Will the exams for Upgrade to OCP11g and OCP11g the same?
Which one is harder? or easier?
Thanks. hope to see your feedback

I am sorry. But i din't quite understand the explanation.
Correct me please if i am wrong.
As I understand you:
1. I am on OCP 10g
2. I will need to take the exams (no need to get additional training) that need to be taken to be an OCP 11g which includes the following:
- 1z0-051: Intro to SQL 11g
- 1z0-052: Admin I 11g (if passed then OCA)
- 1z0-053: Admin II 11g (if passed then OCP)
Is this correct?Can I put it this way.
I apologise if i am being explicit here but I am just being able to cover all angles.
If a person is 10g OCP DBA (and has proof of this as a valid certificate from oracle or can see this on their certification status at certview.oracle.com .... I say this because some people with a 1z0-043 exam pass only may incorrectly claim they are a 10g DBA OCP) then the following routes from 10g DBA OCP to 11g DBA OCP are possible:
1) By passing 1z0-050 ... the 11g DBA OCP should be granted with no further requirements other than the 10g DBA OCP
2) By passing 1z0-052 and 1z0-053 ....... HOWEVER .....
..... It is possilble some 10g DBA OCP may not have passed an SQL exam in the past (1z0-051/047/-007/001) and if this is the case one of 1z0-051/1z0-047/1z0-007 will also need to be passed on this route (I would recommend 1z0-051).
( Essentially route (2) is valid for any DBA OCP; there is a 1z0-055 single upgrade exam for 9i DBA OCP's)
It is recommended to find and check your existing certification under certification history (+not exam history ... that doesnt matter for this purpose+) under certview.oracle.com before starting on this route.

ROI for OCA 10g

Does anyone have statistics on the ROI for the OCA 10g certification? How much emphasis do employers place on an OCA certification? For an OCP certification? How much experience is expected for each? Any other info will be greatly appreciated.

You can check this site: http://www.certmag.com for further information on certification issues.
On the other hand, if you're in doubt about being certified or not, I can tell you if you were in the same condition as another job applicant, same degree, same experience, same skills, the difference between being selected or not is to be or not to be certified.

OCA 10g for DBA

Hi,
I'm planning to take the exam OCA 10g for DBA. I'm wondering which books you would recommend me as a good reference.
I think I will try 1Z0-007 and 1Z0-042 (as a mandatory one)
If 1Z0-007 exam is a good choice?
I bought a book: OCA/OCP: Introduction to Oracle9i SQL Study Guide (Hardcover)
by Chip Dawes (Author), Biju Thomas (Author)
for preparing to 1Z0-007, but I'm not sure which book is good for 1Z0-042 exam.
This one:
OCA: Oracle 10g Administration I Study Guide (1Z0-042) (Paperback)
by Chip Dawes (Author), Bob Bryla (Author), Joseph C. Johnson (Author), Matthew Weishan (Author)
or:
Oracle Database 10g OCP Certification All-In-One Exam Guide (Oracle Database 10g Handbook) [ILLUSTRATED] (Paperback)
by Damir Bersinic (Author), John Watson (Author)
I have been reading many reviews on Amazon but still I want to ask before making a decision.
Thanks

I recommend using both books.
For me the best way to prepare was first using the one of McGraw Hill because this one was easier to read.
But this book misses some details which are asked during the exam!
So the best thing is to read the one of Sybex as well aferwards to check for missing details.
A colleague of mine first prepared with only the Sybex book, but got questions on the exam which weren't covered in the Sybex book as well.
So it seems that preparing with only one of these books is not sufficient.
I didn't find too many mistakes in the McGraw Hill book.
Opposed to the OCP 11 g Upgrade book from S. Alapati... But let's not get into the pain it was to prepare using this book...
Kind regards,
David

OCP 11g DBA..is globalization topic included??

Hi,
I am planning to appear for OCP 11g Admin II exam (1z0-053) soon. I have attended the admin II workshop a while ago and they taught the topic Globalization.
However when i check the exam topic given here in
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=41&p_exam_id=1Z0_053
the topic globalization is not there.
So does anybody know whether i need to prepare for that topic or not??? I have already sent an email to ocp exam email id and waiting for a reply.
Thanks.

Thanks.The reference you have is authorative. If the topic isnt there the question shouldn't be on the exam. It was/is in the 10g DBA exams ... and I have a feeling it was moved from 1z0-042 to 1z0-043 (or vice versa) at some point ... be that at the beta stage or a subsequent exam update.
The Oracle Certificatin exams will often mirror an Oracle University class .... but it is not a requirement one is a subset of the other.

10G Reports download in 11g

Hello All
I downloaded the sample reports for OIM in BI Publisher 10G but I want to use 11g based on better security capabilities. I was wondering if there is a way to import the 10g reports from the download into 11g? I found a couple documents on the ua.bat utility for upgrading repositories and catalogs, but I don't have a 10g install to copy any of the data from. Do you know if it is possible to install the 10g reports on the 11g server? I have the jdbc connection already setup, just need to get the report samples uploaded if possible. Any help you can give would be appreciated.
Thanks
Nick

Hello, I had the same question a while back. Response I got back from Oracle Support was that it's not possible to export a report from 10g and import into 11g. You either have to recreate the entire report or upgrade the repository.
Seems a bit short sighted to me from a migration standpoint, but that's what I know.
