Price of oracle db exams went up to $245 without warning
Hi,
I have many oracle certs.
I am very disappointed that we got no warning that oracle database exam prices were going to jump from $195 to $245 on June 1st.
I was thinking about buying several exam vouchers.
Now they are $50 more.
Some of the other database vendors frequently offer 10 to 20% off or 2nd shot gimicks.
I hope Oracle would consider offering some type of discount.
Others please add to this post if you would like discount codes provided.
Thanks
PS: A little over 3 years ago it was only $125, and now it is $245.

>I've only seen value in my cert for jobs that require a cert.
One of the messages that I try to get out about certifications is that there are two types of value to them, and only one of the two do you have any control over.
Type I: If you spend your test preparation time trying to learn each of the test topics as thoroughly as possible, then almost any Oracle professional -- even the most experienced -- is liable to learn something new. For people just starting out with Oracle, this strategy will teach them a huge amount about the database. It doesn't really match actual experience working with the database, but it's a huge amount better than having no knowledge at all. It will also give them a running start once they do get a job working with Oracle.
Type II: There are employers who give weight to Oracle certifications. This is not in question -- you even note that some require it. Not all do and not all of those that do give the same amount of weight. I have never met any that consider certification to be a negative, so I don't understand your less-than-zero comment. The only time I would consider it a negative is if someone with a certification were to interview with me and the interview questions led me to believe that they did not know enough to have passed the test and likely used a brain dump.
My certifications have come up in several interviews and I know that they have impacted my interviewers in a positive fashion. Part of that is that I don't overplay them. I would never claim to be an expert because I hold a certification for a given area. Instead I present my certifications (quite truthfully) in the fashion that I use them. Namely I tell prospective employers that I use certifications as a means of continually improving my knowledge of Oracle. Strangely I have never found an interviewer who thinks this reflects poorly on me.
I also continue to get certifications while I work for a company. I try to get a couple each year and always present them on my annual 'self-evaluations' as part of my job-skill improvement process. I'm confident that over the years this has led to at least some upward variance in my merit-pay increases. However, I obviously cannot prove it without access to the 'me' in a parallel universe who does not believe in certifications.

Reference book for Oracle Linux exam 1Z0-402
Hi gurus!
Can you please give me useful reference books which cover the al topics for Oracle Linux Exam 1Z0-402 preparation?
Thanks
MokaremCan you please give me useful reference books which cover the al topics for Oracle Linux Exam 1Z0-402 preparation?By itself, 1Z0-402 does not grant any certification. Presumably you are going for Oracle Linux Administrator Certified Associate. That certification path also requires passing 1Z0-403. However, you can skip 1Z0-402 if you already have one of several other industry Linux certifications (LPI, Linux+, Ubuntu, Red Hat, or Novell). My recommendation would be to go for one of these certifications, then skip straight to the 1Z0-403 exam. I suggest that for several reasons:
1. There is a lot more study resources for exams like CompTIAs Linux+ available.
2. The other Linux certifications are better known than Oracle's.
3. Since 1Z0-402 by itself does not grant a certification, going this route gets you two certifications for the price of one.

.... 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.

If you are seeking training:-
1) See education.oracle.com for Oracle University Training.
2) You might find the Workforce development program give more cost effective training: https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/new_home.main . Please note that I believe their website can be misleading; especially for some countries.
Please note that certain (typically higher) Certifications require a course attendance from an appropriate institution.

There aree lot of questions on procedures,functions,subprograms,packages,lobs, trggers and depedencies.

Well, putting it politely, you should defer the certification for a while as I don't think it's going to help you much at the moment.
For the difference between 11g and 12c, read this book.
Contents
If you want to choose a career path of DBA, what you need to do is to understand the oracle database. 12c is a very recent release and just 2 days ago, in a group of about 600 people at a conference, not a single one mentioned that they are having it in their production systems. That is to be expected too as testing and validations of the new releases take time. 11g, on the other hand is available from a long time. So if it is me, I would start from 11g. For improving your skills, download oracle databas from http://otn.oracle.com and install it and play with it.
Study material is only available for those who pay and attend the courses from either Oracle University or from approved partners. Sharing of it is strictly not allowed. Buy a market exam preparation guide if you are not willing to attend a course yet but just so you know, to earn OCP, you would need to attend one course at least from either OU or from its partner.

I want to study for the Oracle Forms: Build Internet application exam (IZ0-141) is this exam specified by oracle versions? Forms for 9i looks a little different that forms for 10g. If it is for 9i the download for Oracle9i Application Server is no longer available, neither is the database version. I want the setup a practice lab for the exam and I want to make sure I am using the correct configuration and that the exam is not go to refer to items that is no longer available.
Thanks!The exam has been validated against both versions of the training. However, we recommend the 10g training over the 9i. Hope this helps.

Dhivya MI am still not fully sure I understand whether you are seeking training or how to register for the exam.
To see where you can take the exam goto: http://www.pearsonvue.com/Oracle/locate/
To register to schedule and sit the exam goto http://www.pearsonvue.com/Oracle/
To locate the certification you are wishing to obtain and the exams required for it: https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=141
http://certiifcation.oracle.com is a valuable resource. Be sure you have fully read everything relevant under 'getting started' and also 'support - faq'
If you are seeking training:-
1) See education.oracle.com for Oracle University Training.
2) You might find the Workforce development program give more cost effective training: https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/new_home.main . Please note that I believe their website can be misleading; especially for some countries.
Please note that certain (typically higher) Certifications require a course attendance from an appropriate institution. Particularly If you are not going through Oracle University ensure that your certification course requirements will mean the certification requirements, and if in any doubt do not rely upon the course providers word. -
Oracle Certification Exam for AIA
Does Oracle have any certification exam for AIA Developer & Expert like similar exam in other technical & functional stream?
If not, is Oracle is planning to lunch that in near future?
Thanks
priyadarshi.Hi Priyadarshi,
There is no certification exam as of now. However, Oracle University offers trainings on AIA both instructor-led and self-paced online. The Foundation Pack Training is especially useful and often required for any one working with AIA. You may access them at http://education.oracle.com.
