Oracle 11g OCP

Hi,
I'm an OCA Oracle 9i PL/SQL and OCP Oracle 9i DBA. I wish to earn Oracle 11g OCP in PL/SQL now. Can anyone update me on how can I do that directly (bypassing exams for 10g).
On http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=155 I found following information which show I needs to pass only Oracle 11g Advanced PL/SQL 1Z0-146 to become OCP 11g PL/SQL as I'm already an OCA PL/SQL.
Am I correct?
PRIOR CERTIFICATION
Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate

Oracle 11g OCP certification kit

I have completed Oracle 11g OCP. As I understand a hands-on training course is manadatory to get the certification kit.
Can I do a Self-Study CD course or do I have to do Instructor led course?
Thanks.

information about that cert is here:
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=198
note the link which says "Complete one of the approved instructor-led online or in-class courses."

Oracle 11g OCP 1Z0-050

Hi Guys
Any idea why that test is so hard?
It will be the third time i will try to get pass that exam, i feel it simply too difficult.
Any methods or idea to get it done? *dumps are excluded and banned in my world!!!!!!
Oracle 11g is quite complicated and in general Oracle gains a lot in complexity....
Please share your methods here....

Hi,
I managed to pass this test at the first attempt.
I prepared using the book "OCP Oracle Database 11g: New Features for Administrators Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-050)" by Sam Alapati.
This book was full with errors. I'm quite sure I would have failed the test miserably if I only prepared using this book.
Fortunately I noticed that there's a lot of conflicting information in this book. There are also errors in the tests (wrong answers).
So I ended up spending a lot of time double checking all information in the online documentation.
If you're using this book, I would strongly advise you to read it very sceptical and only as a guide to create your own notes.
Also, if any books are out by e.g. Sybex, have a look at these instead. They can never be as worse as the one by S. Alapati ;-)
And remember to practice all topics.
I also found the upgrade exam to be more difficult than the 10g OCA/OCP exams.
So in short, my preparation was:
1) Read all information in the exam cram book sceptically, verify in the online documentation and create my own notes. => this took a lot of time, but provided a global knowledge of all topics
2) Test each topic and verify my notes are correct.
3) Study own notes. => detailed knowledge of topics
4) Only take the tests at the end of each chapter when I studied everything thoroughly. => verify knowledge
5) Check if errors were due to misunderstanding some topics + corect notes, or just wrong answers in the book...
6) Keep track of topics with poor understanding, create notes for these, and study these extra.
Success with the next attempt. If you pass it, you'll be proud you didn't use brain dumps.
Greetz,
David

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.

How to Install Oracle 11g on Linux for Power?

I've installed RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.4 on IBM PowerPC server.
Now I want to install Oracle 11g on it. But there are no Oracle 11g downloads for Linux for Power.
Is there any workaround so Oracle 11g can be installed on Linux on Power?

Hi,
I think you can forget it. Oracle 10g R2 was the last version supported on Linux PowerPC.

Oracle 11g Certification Query

Hi all,
I have given my Oracle 11g exams for OCP certification. Now, i need to take one of the mandatory training to fulfill the requirements for certification. I am in Kuwait and when i select the country as Kuwait, the cheapest training course is of $1230. I am an indian, so when i select the country as India on the oracle site, the price reduces down to $540 for the same course. This is for the Live Virtual Class (LVC) rates. Can i book the LVC with India as country. Do I have to be present in India for the LVC training or only taking a course is compulsion.
Kindly advice.

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.

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.

Differences between 1Z0-042, 1Z0-043 1Z0-052 and 1Z0-053 and 11g OCP

Hi All
I have a small dilemma
For Christmas I was given a copy of OCA/OCP Oracle Database 11g All-in-One Exam Guide with CD-ROM: Exams 1Z0-051, 1Z0-052, 1Z0-053 (Osborne Oracle Press Series) [http://www.amazon.co.uk/Oracle-Database-All-Guide-CD-ROM/dp/0071629181/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262090730&sr=1-5|http://www.amazon.co.uk/Oracle-Database-All-Guide-CD-ROM/dp/0071629181/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1262090730&sr=1-5]
As you will see in the book title it covers 1Z0-051, 1Z0-052 and 1Z0-053
About a year ago I attended the following courses
TT - Oracle D/B 10g Program PL/SQL-QA-IQ
TT - Oracle PL/SQL - GK
TT - Oracle 10g Intro to SQL
I have been meaning to get round to taking my exams and OCA qualification is no problem as I can take 1Z0-051 and 1Z0-052 using the above book and the knowledge I gained on the course (even though the course was 10g).
But my question surrounds 11g OCP and how it requires instructor led training - now I have done my 10g course but I guess this wont count as an instructor led course for 11g OCP.
If not then im going to need to take the route of 1Z0-042, 1Z0-043 to get OCP and 1Z0-050 to upgrade to 11g
So I would ask how safe I would be learning the above mentioned book and taking the 1Z0-042, 1Z0-043 exams. I understand there is no accurate answer as it is subjective but if 1Z0-052 and 1Z0-053 (11g) knowledge covers 1Z0-042 and 1Z0-043 (10g) knowledge then there should be no problem, right?
I really dont want to have to take the book back or purchase another.
Thanks in advance
Rob

Thanks in advance
RobYour'e thinking sensibly about this. Well done. And the hands on course needs to be considered carefully and I often say this can be deciding factor in planning.
IMHO there is at least 80% commonality between the topics for 1z0-042 AND 1Z0-052 .... and probably similar for 1z0-043 and 1z0-053 whoug I've never directly checked this and there may be a greater divergence there.
Be aware some topics in 1z0-050 will not be covered in the books you have as far as I am aware.
One option you have not considered is taking exams in this order ..... this will give you 10g OCP and 11g OCP. This is wha I did .... but it mainly occured that for me way as the 1z0-053 was fairly delayed into production and I wanted the certificates I could have as soon as possilble .... ie 10gDBAOCP and 11gDBAOCA. I actually did the 1z1-053 beta for my 11g DBA OCP ... cheaper than 1z0-050 as I already had 11g DBA OCA.
1z0-051 1z0-042 1z0-052 1z0-043 1z0-053.
I know you dont want to buy another book, but the 10g ones from Sybex (and associated CDROM's) give a slightly different viewpoint (though they are for 10gR1 and are not updated for 10gR2 topics). IMHO the sybex books can ometimes go a little over the top in some areas. But all these books can contain some errors ... however they do provide an extra set of practice questions. However it is an option for you.
Its worth registering your 10g course as a hands on course as soon as reasonably possible to ensure there are no issues with it (I assume you have attended the course from Oracle University).
Anyway these are my thoughts. But you know your own circumstances and are responsible for your own decisions. Good Luck.

Oracle 11g database certification

Hi to all,
I am an Oracle database 10g OCA certified. I got my certification in 2008; Sadly, I was really busy with many projects during the last 2 years so No time to pass my OCP 10g database exam.
My question is ; is it better (in time, and money):
1- pass and upgrade my OCA 10g to OCA 11G and then pass my OCP 11G?
2- pass my OCP 10G database exam and then do the upgrade exam of OCP 11G?
Thanks a lot,

A few points:
1) There is a Certification forum that discusses exactly these questions;
2) There is no 'OCA Upgrade' exam, so the 11g OCA is a complete exam from scratch;
3) OCP 10g + OCP 11g(ug) is 2 exams, OCA 11g + OCP 11g is 2 exams so same price;
4) OCP 10g + OCP 11g(ug) is 2 'pro' certs, OCA 11g + OCP 11g is 1 'pro' cert.
However, the upgrade exam does stretch you into areas not normally seen by OCPs in practise. You end up being a guru, of sorts.

Oracle 11g Certification and Workshop Requirement

Hello,
I have recently cleared below Oracle Exams.
1Z0-051 (SQL Fundamentals)
1Z0-052 (Oracle 11g Admin I)
1Z0-053 (Oracle 11g Admin II) - Cleared in May 2013
I haven't completed the Workshop requirement which indicates I am not OCP as of now.
Question is, is there any specific time limit within which I have to complete the Workshop? Specifically can I wait for another 6 months before completing the Workshop?
If I can wait for 6 months, is there any chance OU will stop offering these workshops in next 6 months (by Dec 2013)?
Thanks

There is no time limit. But more importantly, you do not need to attend either of the DBA workshop courses. There are many courses which will meet the requirement. As you have the knowledge to have passed the exams, you should attend a more advanced course. Perhaps the Database Performance Tuning course, or (if you want a shorter and cheaper one) SQL Statement Tuning.

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.

I see that 1Z0-146 is the final paper for OCP (Advanced PL/SQL programmer). Can I not get a OCA certification in 11g?You can get the "Oracle PL/SQL Developer Certified Associate" certificate if you pass (1Z0-001 or 1Z0-007 or 1Z0-047 or 1Z0-051) + 1Z0-147 exam.

Hi Easyman,
sure, just have a look in $INSTALL_CONF directory. Files starting with swInst* are referencing a response file from $INSTALL_CONF/response directory. Either use a sample configuration file or add your own response file to install Oracle.

Edited by: user647572 on Dec 26, 2011 5:10 AMI dispair when an Oracle Certified Professional says he does not have 'preapartion material' and asks for a PDF link.
.... The most likely response is from someone training to sell unauthorised learning materials.
..... The OCP should understand the exams topics and online manuals for 11g should be sufficient. Oracle Press Books and Sybex Books for 11g DBA OCP should also cover number of the required topics if that helps. Not to mention Oracle University Training.
...... But an OCP asking for a 'PDF' or 'PPT' for the 1z0-055 exam ??????? .... what form of content are you thinking?
