Oracle 11g , Administrator OCM certification

Hi,
I have completed OCP certification in the developers track by clearing in the following exams : 1Z0-007 , 1Z0-147 and 1Z0-146.
I wish to become an OCM in DBA track for Oracle 11g.
Going by the steps mentioned in the Oracle certification website, I saw that the path to become an OCM would be as :
1> OCA : Clearing 1Z0-007 / 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-052 exams.
2> OCP : Clearing a certified hands on course followed by clearing 1Z0-053 exam and submitting a form as proof of clearing hands on training.
3> OCM : Clearing 2 of the certified courses , appearing for the OCM exam , submitting a form as proof for clearing the certified courses and submitting the required application kit.
Since, I have already cleared the exam 1Z0-007 , do I have to clear it again as part of becoming an OCA or will the previous clearing of this exam suffice ?
also , do I have to clear 1Z0-051 exam.
Please note , I have cleared 1Z0-007 around February 2010.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Haider

...I saw that the path to become an OCM would be as...The steps you have listed are correct.
Since, I have already cleared the exam 1Z0-007 , do I have to clear it again...No, the one exam will serve for both certification tracks. Exam results do not expire.

  • How to get Oracle 11g OCA, OCM, OCP certification?

    Hi,
    This is my first post! Please pardon my ignorance. I want to get Oracle 11g OCA, OCM, OCP certifications done. How do I go about it? How much does it cost to get these certifications? Could you please suggest a website/url where I can get more information about it.
    Thank you,
    Tracy

    The Oracle Certification Program site should answer your questions.
    Assuming you are trying to get certified on the DBA track (there are many different certification tracks, I'm assuming when you say 11g that you mean to indicate that you're interested in the DBA track), you can see the progression of the exams and the options you have on this page.

  • Oracle Database 11g Administrator or Oracle PL/SQL and Forms Developer?

    Hi,
    I am thinking about doing an Oracle certification course- Oracle Database 11g Administrator or Oracle PL/SQL and Forms Developer.
    Oracle Database 11g OCP and OCM certification requires 3 mandatory training courses to be completed that costs between $1900 and $3250/each. Oracle PL/SQL certication doesn't require any mandatory training course.
    Which one of these would be a good choice? Please advise.
    Thank you,
    Tracy

    Regardless of which path you want to take, in order to get the OCP certification in either the DBA or PL/SQL developer track, you must first obtain the respective OCA certification for that track. I'm assuming that since you are still undecided in which path to take that you haven't started working on either yet. If you look at the pages for the OCA DBA and OCA PL/SQL Developer certs and what is required for each, you'll see that the first block of tests for either certification (the SQL based exams) has the same options (1Z0-007, 1Z0-047, 1Z0-051) and passing one of those SQL based exams gives credit towards obtaining both OCA certifications. That might be a good place to start.
    Doing one of these tests first might give you some extra time to decide which track you want to pursue. But as Justin said, it really depends on what you do (or plan on doing) in your career as to which path might be more beneficial for you.
    As for the OCM level stuff, I wouldn't even think about it until you get the OCP. One step at a time... Same with OCP before OCA. That being said, my suggestions are just that, suggestions. You're free to take any exams/courses in any order, but you won't be able to obtain the certs until you have completed the requirements for each.

  • I am now "Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate"

    Hi
    after very hard work I am now Oracle Database 11g Administrator Certified Associate. I attended courses (Admin I and SQL Fundamentals) 3 years ago. My Oracle knowhow is only the scope OCA 11g and have no Java know-how.
    What should I do next?
    - 1Z0-047 Oracle Database SQL Certified Expert
    or
    - 1Z0-803 Java SE 7 Programmer I
    what is simpler?

    I am searching for an easy winI'm not a big proponent of 'easy'. I'm much more a fan of 'worthwhile'. Determining what is 'easy' for you is not easy. It's hard enough figuring out what is easy for me. That said, a fast and dirty rule of thumb for comparing Oracle certifications is:
    Easiest
    OCA -- Broad range of topics -- shallow depth
    OIS -- Narrow range of topics -- moderate depth (Implementation Specialist -- dunno if they really have an accepted acronym)
    OCP -- Broad range of topics -- moderate depth
    OCE -- Narrow range of topics -- considerable depth
    OCM -- Whole different ballgame -- perform or fail
    Hardest
    Since you are asking about an OCA exam vs an OCE exam, the basic answer is going to be that the OCA exam is easier. That doesn't take into account you. For all I know, you might be mentally allergic to Java and learning it may be the hardest thing you've ever done.

    Hey all. I'm trying to figure out if the class "Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I Release 2" counts toward OCP certification.

    Sorry ... misunderstood, either the (release 1 or release 2 will count). I am not authorative on this but they are not that cruel. The main general issue is 10g classes typically cannot be used for an 11g OCP. Please note I am not authorative on this but I am as sure as I can be about the principle. Check with your local Oracle University if you need to be authoratively sure.

    RkThe Oracle PL/SQL deveoper certifications is not version specific; probably becuase in general changes are version specific.
    If general you need to pass one or mor exams for a certification.
    The relevant page for yourself is here (in case you didnt already find it):
    [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=155]
    So for instance if you passed 1z0-051 and 1z0-144 you would gain a PL/SQL OCA certification
    : 1z0-0147 is an alternative exam for 1z0-144
    : 1z0-007 is an alternative for 1z0-051 (as is 1z0-047 but that generally though to be more difficult)
    A PL/SQL OCA who also passes 1z0-146 gets a PL/SQL developer OCP. (There is no hands on course requirement for a PL/SQL OCP, unlike a DBA OCP)
    :: As an added confused 1z0-144 is currently in beta (as exam 1z0-144 until 10th sept. 2009). The production exam will not then release for another 10/13 weeks, say 1st december 2009.
    For most people I would recommend concentrating on 1z0-051 first.

  • Oracle 12c OCM Certification

    Hi,
    I have completed my 11g OCP in 2014, and I'm currently busy preparing for the 11g Performance Tuning Exam (1Z0-054).
    Seeing that Oracle 12c Certification is available, I would like to know the best route to get to 12c OCM.
    Do I need to first complete the 11g OCM, and then upgrade to 12c OCM?
    Or, first upgrade to 12c OCP, and then go for 12c OCM?

    Aw shuckeroos ... no danger of me getting he old correct answer on this one as Matthew's got it first
    Three Comments:
    My recommendation in general would be to concentrate on getting the 12c OCP before getting the OCM.
    As people approach OCM level they should be of the mindset of working things out for themselves (Including how to get to OCM).  ( Having said that as you are in the midst of an honourable 11g Performance Tuning Exam (1Z0-054) I can see how you might not too much time to delve deeply).
    Be aware of the pre-requisite training requirements for OCM .... several courses are required at of above the OCM level you are trying to attain.  While not a problem for some; this could be expensive for others.
    OCM exam sittings are sparse.  The 11g DBA OCM -> 12c DBA OCM upgrade will likely appear first, following a while later by the 12c DBA OCM exam.  After that has been out for maybe about a year opportunities to take 11g DBA OCM are likely to become sparse to non-existant.  ( This is my view only), Thus OCM Candidates may need to think in terms of that when 11c DBA OCM exams emerges if they are unable to take (and even retake) 11g DBA OCM in well under a year they switching the target to 12c DBA OCM might be prudent.

    Kindly advice.If you take LVC training my understanding, and it has been discussed in previous threads, if you need to be prsent in the country from which hte LVC is being presented. So if you want to take it in India you will need to travel back there.

  • Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?

    Hi all,
    I am lil bit confuse to decide about my oracle core dba certification.
    Please help me to know, as per the present requirements of the business organizations.
    ***Should I go for Oracle 10g OCA/OCP or 11g OCA/OCP Certification?***
    Hope u guys answer me earliest.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Most likely, it doesn't matter too much. I doubt that most employers are terribly concerned with what recent version of Oracle you have a certification on.
    That said, if it matters
    - What does your organization use? What are their plans to upgrade? If your company still uses 9.2 primarily and has plans to upgrade to 10.2 this year, you're probably better off with a 10g certification. If your company is already running mostly 11.2, you're probably better off with an 11g certification.
    - What do most employers in your particular part of the world tend to use? What do job postings in your particular part of the world generally list?

  • Oracle 11g OCA certification

    I am newbie .I would like to know a good book for Oracle 11g OCA certification ,1Z0-051 and 1Z0-052(with lesser number of mistakes).Appreciate a response.

    I can tell you from personal experience that it is extraordinarily difficult to write a technical book with zero defects. Spell-checkers and grammar checkers produce huge numbers of false positives when looking for standard (i.e. non technical) errors. Technical errors are easy to introduce -- forget to add a 'Not' in a sentence, or something similar -- and hard to detect afterward. When I read through my study guides looking for errors, I tend to see what I meant to write.
    That said, such defects are normally a tiny fraction of the information contained within certification manuals. A couple of reviews on the Oracle Press 1Z0-052 book written by John Watson mention a couple of errors and then imply the book is filled with more. I've read the book and it is very informative. It contains hundreds of pieces of information and contains about ten errors -- all mentioned in the errata on the McGraw Hill site. The books is good preparation for the text and for learning the basics of being an Oracle DBA.
    As Aman indicated, using more than one source is a good way to help to detect inaccuracies. I believe in always using multiple sources and the documentation is generally a good option for that.

  • Oracle 11g certification in Developer track

    I would like to go for Oracle 11g certification in Developer track. I've already given 1Z0-051 paper.
    Is OCA 11g certification in Developer track now available. And if it is not currently available, I believe when it is going to be released the first paper is going to the be same (1Z0-051) and I could give the second paper and get the certification.
    Please advise.

    Could you please explain what is the difference between beta exam and the normal one.Q) What is the difference between a Beta exam and a production exam?
    A) Beta exams are used by Oracle to test new exam questions with the participation of a live audience. Data gathered during beta testing are used to select the best questions for the production exam, and to eliminate questions that are ambiguous, too easy or too difficult, or are unhelpful in evaluating participants' knowledge level. Beta exams are offered at a discounted price; and candidates usually have either 3 or 3.5 hours to complete the exam, and may see 175 - 220 questions. For more details on how beta exams differ from the production version, visit the Oracle Certification Beta Exam Information web page.
