Oracle OCP Hands on course discount for OPN member ?

Hi guys,
I work for a company in Australia that is a Oracle Advantage Partner (highest level).
I have completed the OCA but I understand the OCP requires a instructor led training courses. Seems like the price of these courses is $3000-$5000 AUD.
Is there any discount for a certified Oracle Advantage Partner company ?
Thanks

For sure in courses there will be no discounts for oracle advantage partner companies that too for an individual attending the training in public batch. But if you company want to arrange a private training through Oracle University then they may give discount but your company should arrange minimum 6 candidates to attend the training.
But you can get benifited with one new features...If you attend any Oracle 10g DBA Workshop I or Oracle 10g DBA Workshop II training through oracle university then they are providing a free exam voucher for the exam. So maximum that you can save is the exam money. For more details on discount vouchers check education.oracle.com

Oracle 9i Hands-On Course Requirement

Hello all,
I have finished all 4 exams for Oracle 91 OCP DBA certification and I need to take the Oracle 9i Hands-On Course Requirement. From what I understand from oracle website you have to attend a class from a list of approved courses at oracle university or oracle authorized center or an oracle partner and then
1) the institute where you attended the course sends information about your attendance to Oracle. And oracle in turn verifies attendance.
2) How long does it take for Oracle to verify that I attended that course if not taken at OU and
3) How long does it take for Oracle to send me the final OCP certificate?
4) Oracle website also mentions that a candidate needs to submit a form online and take a test at the prometric website.
5) Is there a cost effective way of taking this course?
I am trying to locate centers in US within New York City that offer the Oracle OCP Hands-On Course Requirement for Oracle 9i certification OCP DBA. I am specifically looking for an Oracle authorized center or partner in NY (as a cheaper option). I have been looking for hours on the oracle website and I am unable to find any specific information. I can only see oracle university locations or oracle partners who do not provide training
for individuals. At this point I am quite frustrated and I would really appreciate any help.
I want to quickly take the course and get my OCP certificate. Since I am planning to visit India, I thought of taking the course there as it would be lot cheaper ($200 Vs $750 for an online course in US). I talked to an institute in India and they tell me that I need to enroll for a course and then on completion they willvsend oracle all my details. There are no exams for the course. It will take a month for them to receive the certificate for the course and then I can apply for the OCP certificate to Oracle. (So are we talking about 2 months here for the certificate?)
However when I spoke to a customer care rep at oracle uni, they gave me a complete different picture. They tell me that I need to enroll in a class which might be a max of 5 days and then I can get my OCP certificate within a week. I also need to give an exam for the course
that I take.
I am confused and I am unable to find any oracle authorized centers or partners in US in New York so I can call and confirm. If you have any information regarding this with the correct sequence, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!
Purvi.

Hello Neil and 355099,
Both your links are helpful and i was able to find the centers. I had earlier looked at the courses and schedules and assumed that the same offered by and Oracle partner or authorized center might be less money. Anyways in case some one wants to take the course outside US here's the link - http://www.oracle.com/education/partners/partners.html#5
Thanks again,
Purvi.

11g ocp hands on course

Hi
I want to become 11g ocp.
I know that I have to take one hands on course to achieve this.
I am not new to oracle thefore I am not interested in subjects in 11g workshop1 and 11g workshop2.
I am just wondering, if I can take "11g R2 New Features for Administrator" course as a hands on course?

The fact that the course is now 11gR2 based rather than just '11g' (R1) is not relevant in your context. (I dont have an athorative reference on that but essentailly 11gR2 based courses are replacing 11gR1 based ones not supplementing them)

Edited by: raoofdba on Apr 28, 2010 11:02 PMSome things you say here dont make sense.
In general often things to do with a workforce development program institute can seem to get into a difficult areas.
As far as I can tell the WDP programme cirriculum is published here: https://workforce.oracle.com/wdp_curr.html (accessed from UK).
(The last updated date of last updated February, 2007 and copyright of date 2002, i may have my doubts about, i can't recall finding this page previously, however having found it i welcome it. The instructional hours are up to 12 hours per week now ... used to be less ... i would think there is a risk of this is a web updated in late 2009/2010 with some detail inaccuracies ).
Now I see no mention of a +"WDP Oracle Database 10g : Performance Tuning"+ course on that page.
The nature of the voucher I cannot myself authoratively confirm. WDP Institiutes get one official voucher per student attending a course: see: http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=156
If it is a voucher as described on that link (Which is certifcation home page ... Getting started ... Exam Vouchers) then it is usable for any exam in the price bracket (The page may have a bug .. {thread:id=1065162} }
Being a cynic, and I may be completely wrong on this, I suspect some institutes end up with a surplus of such vouchers through candidates abandoning courses and can trade them down Peckham market in ways not intended.
To sumarise I think there is a good chance the WDP Institute is offering you the 'Oracle Database 10g: Administration Workshop II' course not a "WDP Oracle Database 10g : Performance Tuning" course unless in institute is both a OAEC and a WDP Institute.
There is a possibility they may be offering you vouchers outside of the general scheme.
Any issues/disputes with vouchers/course delivering/course eligibility for certification hands on purposes is between you and the institute.

Hands On Course Requirement for OCP Level

Dear friends,
I'm planning to join in Oracle datawarehouse-related training. Since there's no schedule for "*Oracle Database 11g: Data Warehousing Fundamentals*" yet in my country, I alternatively decide to take "*Oracle Database 11g: OLAP Essentials*".
Based on official info here , I know that course is no longer being scheduled. But I was searching in education.oracle.com and found there's a training schedule on Monday, November 14th, 2011 in Oracle company in my country for that course.
My question is : Is it still eligible to complete my OCP requirement?
Of course if "*Oracle Database 11g: Data Warehousing Fundamentals*" is scheduled before November 14th,2011. I'll take it instead of "*Oracle Database 11g: OLAP Essentials*".
Need your advice.
Thank you.

What exactly is "your OCP requirement"?
Perhaps you should get confirmation that the specific course (and maybe course number) is actually going to be held.
You may also want to post a request or show of interest for DW Fundamentals to your local office because they may want to know of potential attendees before they can schedule a course.

Help..Oracle could not trace my WDP hands on course for OCP 10g

Dear All,
Can somebody on Oracle (OTN team) could help me to validate & check my WDP hands on course as below detail :
Class Name :
ORACLE DATABASE 10G: ADMINISTRATION WORKSHOP II RELEASE 2 - WDP (D17092GC31S)
Location : CV Informit Indonesia
Student Id : 62156
Student Name : Zulfirman
Schedule : 25 March 2011 - 10 April 2011
(10 sessions @ 3 Hours)
I have put above information on VUE, but then come up an email response from oracle asking my hardcopy certificate course.
I have contacted the INFORMIT, they said it takes 2 up to 3 month to get the certification from OU indonesia.
Since it take long time to get the training certification, I come back emailing the oracle to ask for speed up, then they said they need to check further about my training detail.
FInally they come up with an email that asking me to ask INFORMIT to email the oracle confirming that i have already completed that course.
Worstly, i have not in that city anymore where the INFORMIT located, but i drop informit an email just now to forward oracle request to them.
Question :
1. Can someone help me to validate my training instead of waiting oracle with the emailing back - forward ?
2.Why ORacle unable to trace my detail WDP class above ? Is it because of a cheap WDP training so they dont provide a connected server between WDP training provider & OU or Oracle headquarter ?
3. The Hardcopy certification for WDP student take too long. What is the std lead time for WDP student to have thier training certifiaction ?
Thank You,
Zulfirman,PMP,OCA

Hi Brandye Barrington,
No,
they didnt provide me an exam voucer. For your info, i have already passed all the exam required for OCP track.Which is an indicator of something not right. Mabe not your fault. Maybe the Institution. Maybe WDP.
My goal to get this training is to refresh me about the topic & to claim my OCP status.
you can check my exam history using my ORacle Testing ID (or Oracle Certification Program ID): XXXXXXXXXXWell you've just 3.2 (iv) No Misconduction of the http://education.oracle.com/education/pdf/ocp_candidate_agreement_V0810.pdf of the agreement you make before taking this exam by disclosiing your Oracle Testing Id to another person ... aka the whole internet!
>
For your info,
I hve just got confirmation from my WDP training centre (Informit). They have emailed "[email protected]" to confirm that i have officialy registered with WDP training centre by showing to them (them = oracle) the screen shot or print screen of regsitration form from WDP website, where my name alrady been registered inside the WDP system.
Ho Ho Ho !! The WDP training center are well enoughton the ball to know that email address have been withdrawn. ( http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2011/03/email_alias_ocpexam_wworacleco.html ).
Perhaps that document does show a registration number.
Now i can only wait, wheter oracle still could not accpet that email from INFORMIT as a proof or i have to wait for my certification hardcopy (take 2 or 3 months ahead)
Emails can be faked. And I am reasonably certain a percentage of WDP Training centers would not apply the rules properly if they could get away with it.
If i still have to wait for the scan hardcopy certification, then for sure, i really upset with ORACLE, due they could not manage best communication & sychronization database between ORACLE - WDP TRanining Centre, & me as a unlucky candidate due to their bad communication on both system.
IMHO I can see from this and other threads that WDP or the training centers fail to publish clear and precise information of what is involved so the students can authoratively check on an oracle website. IMHO The WDP Traiing centers have a degree of control which they can use to mislead students.
And I assume you have access to the following :: https://workforce.oracle.com/pdf/html_rd/wdp_stu_reg.html?wdp0 ... and if not why not ? ( I dont .. i am not WDP).
If ORACLE is a great database company, then they must already predict such issue in early as possible instead of waiting such complaint raised in.
Oracle is Great. Larry is Great. Any Oracle RDBMS version with a zero in it may be a bad vintage.
But IMHO you may be right wrt WDP.
Again, Pls help me on this..
Besr Regards,
Zulfirman,PMP,OCAWhen one does training at OU the attendance is properly recorded and there are nless real issues with attendance not being recorded.
With WDP institutions as far as I can tell this is not perhaps as well auditted and there is perhaps room for shenanigans; faked attendance, etc.
As far as i know when WDP was started (oracle 9i) the students used to have to attend the whole track of a specially constructed coiurse to get the credi ( I used to call it a never mind the quality feel the width training). And the training was spread to ensure the pupil had time to absorb the training. And it might be taught by non Oracle Professionals. WDP can however now be used for a single session set of part of track being sufficient for the training requirement (This may be simply a never mind the quality appreciatethe cheapness approach).
This may all seem off topic for you.
However please realise Oracle Certification (whcih operates independently of WDP who do there own thing) need to establish training has been properaly attended. And if there is a loophole many WDP candidates wll rush towards it.
This however does give me a chance to kick Oracle to ensure WDP has its house in order.

If your training isn't an authorized course from an authorized provider it won't help.
Yours was possilby an WDP course.
The problem is there can be some bad people out there.

Hence, I sent the scanned copy of the Course Attendance Certificate to [email protected], as a result I got immediate system generated response from Oracle "Please Allow 5 Days For A Response" But, after 12 days (9 working days) I am unable to get the response from Oracle.
What is wrong in this process, I sent an email reminder TODAY (Sept. 18, 2013) and submitted a Service Request using CertView Login Credentials and YET TO GET A RESPONSE. Anybody from Oracle Certification Support Team can resolve this issue, please?
I will appreciate the response from OCP Support Team!
this is not the "OCP Support Team". This is simply a forum platform provided by Oracle for the use of their user base to be able to support each other without unduly clogging the official support channel. There are very few people here who are oracle employees, and those that are are un-identified as such and are NOT here in their official capacity as Oracle employees.

Muhammad AliOkay I've haven't done 1z0-045 ... but I at one point I was considering 1z0-050 so I'm willing to share my views on an upgrade exam and exams in general.
Remember Oracle are trying to ensure that a DBA who was tested at 8i DBA OCP has nw
It depends on your definition of read the topics. If you mean literally just read the topics then that will result in a failure. If you mean study research practice and fully understand the topics that should lead to a pass.
Bear in mind that Oracle would expect a competent 8i DBA attending the 5 day training course Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Oracle8i DBAs [http://education.oracle.com/web_prod-plq-dad/plsql/show_desc.redirect?dc=D17389GC10&p_org_id=&lang=&source_call=] to be able pass the exam with perhaps 2 to 4 weeks further study, revision and practice.
Interestingly this particular exam has a relatively high pass mark (73%) ... one implication of that is that it is prudent to be comfortable with all topics.
Generally an upgrade exam will cover topics beyond that of the straight OCA/OCP exams. The questions will obviously be at OCP level.
It is possilble the Sybex book Oracle 10g New Features for Administrators Study Guide (Certification Study Guide) ISBN-13: 978-0782143553 which although for 1z0-040 may have some relevance for some of your topics. If you choose to purchase it that is your choice. (It seems to have good amazon reviews ... though all of these books can contain errors, it may or may not be updated for 10gR2, and some Sybex Oracle books are sometimes OTT in some areas IMHO, but that wouldn't stop me using one).
