Training courses for APO securities

Hi,
I am trying to find APO securities training courses. Does anyone know what SAP courses can be taken for that? I searched all APO courses but couldnot find any. I would appreciate if any one can give me some information on this.
So far I found only the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/21/f6253b90e48743e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm">sap help apo authorizations</a>
Thanks.

Free Training Documentation for APO

Everyone,
Does anyone know about a good training document for APO configuration.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Gayatri

Gayatri,
APO is a rather significant subsystem of SCM. Most experts don't attempt to learn all of it. I suggest that you focus on a few solutions that you think you will be needing, rather than learning the whole thing.
For starters, when learning configuration, always start with SAP's Best Practices. For APO, look at
http://help.sap.com/bp_scmv250/BBLibrary/HTML/BBLibrary_EN_DE.htm.
Each of the building blocks contains a configuration doc. If you can master all of these, you will be more knowledgeable than 90% of the professional consultants in the business.
Best regards,

I need help finding a training course for FCP X

I am on Larry Jordan's site, but that only involves watching videos. I learn better by working on a project at the same time. This newbie needs some direction. I need a hands on training course. Please help.

As some of the others have stated both Ripple Training and Lynda.com are excellent options. Lynda.com offers a very wide range of training (including Logic Pro X, Motion 5, Compressor 4, etc.) that you can access via subscription. If you want to work directly with project files then you will need the higher end subscription to download the course files. Lynda.com just updated their FCPX training to the latest version of the software. Ripple Training is also excellent, and comes from the guys behind the FCPX & Motion certification courses. Their training is offered a la carte, and will run you a few hundred dollars to get everything.
Another great option is MacProVideo.com, they offer both purchases and subscriptions and have a decent range of courses. Their new Film Craft series isn't about FCPX, but is absolutely worth taking if you're new to the industry. They have great FCPX training, but are much more geared towards music programs.
You aren't likely to find a one size fits all approach to your training needs, and honestly, if you've got the time, complete as many of them as possible. Both Lynda and Ripple offer excellent courses on the art of editing. Ripple Training's Motion courses are second to none.
One more option would be taking a course at an Apple Certified Training Center. I didn't do this for FCPX, but did for my Logic Pro X & Motion 5 certifications and it worked out very well. The downsides are that it's very expensive, but you get to sit with an instructor, ask questions, and at the end of the course you can take the certification exam for free (well, included in your class). You really can't go wrong as long as you keep your education moving forward.

Training Courses for discoverer Admin

Hi,
I was looking at Oracle Uni Ireland and there are two course for creating an EUL. One is Oracle Discoverer Administrator 10g: Develop an EUL (Development Tools)
This class is applicable to Oracle 9iAS Discoverer users. and the other is OracleBI Discoverer Administrator 10g: Develop an EUL (Development Tools)
Is there a difference between these courses? I was previously told by a sales person at oracle there was not but today when I called them they said there is a difference. There is a CD rom available for the first course. Has anyone used the CD Rom and found it useful?
thanks

Hi
Actually the Discoverer Administrator tool has changed so little over the past 5 years or so that you could take a Discoverer 4 EUL class and apply everything that you have learned to 10g. Personally I'd go for the one entitled OracleBI Discoverer Administrator. That's the latest version. You can tell because the letters BI are now part of the product.
I've never used the CD ROM so can't comment - sorry.
Best wishes
Michael

Looking for APO training in Detroit area or online

Hello.
I am brand new to SAP, and hoping to learn APO and combine it with my profesisonal experience for a new career direction. I have included a brief summary of my experience and education at the end of this post.
I am looking for a quality online /eLearning course for APO or a live course in the Detroit area to supplement my official SAP Education USA courses. I am much in need of SAP system access / lab setting for practicing etc.
I have taken SAP01 through SAP Education USA, and scheduled for:
SCM130     SAP R/3 Planning and Manufacturing Overview
SCM200     Business Processes in Planning (SCM)
Thank you,
Brian
Brief background:
*Brand new to SAP, and not currently working with it
*Experienced Supply Chain / manufacturing professional, exculsively in a Big Three automotive company (non-manager)
*MBA, (Supply Chain Management concentration)
*MS, Information Technology Management
*Process experience in EDI, JIT, lean, planning, forecasting, scheduling, material releasing
*Cross functional experience in logistics, purchasing, sales and marketing (demand and volume planning)
*Excellent system / technology skills including experience with i2 Integrated Volume Planning (IVP) and Gateline Optimization Product (GOP)

Hi Brian,
               It is unfortunate but there are no real reliable people for teaching particularly APO. The best bet I would say is sap itself. It is worth every penny. I searched for people all over US and burnt my hands few places as well as they took money but did not teach even what they said. APO itself if fairly new and very few people expertise in it.
Read the material first before going to the certification. I am sure with your background, you should be able to grab the topics fairly easily.I think the only uphill task for you is to understand how SAP deal with the supply chain not understanding the topics of SCM.
All the best.

ACE XML Gateway Training Course

Hello,
Does anyone know of a company that offers a training course for the ACE XML Gateway? I have found many companies that claim to offer training, but no one acutally has any course dates. We have been working through our Global Knowledge rep for a couple months asking them to schedule a class but it sounds like there just isn't enough intrest to fill a class up. The only course dates that I have managed to find are in Europe.
Has anyone attended training on the AXG, or know of someone who has?
Thanks,
Mike

I'm not aware of any courses available in the US. I've been keeping my eye open as well for the past 3-4 months. I'm not able to attend any of the international classes unless they were offered online.

UCM/UCCX Training (not for certs)

Is there any self-paced training out there for UCM or UCCX? I'm not looking for certificiation, just something to help our administrators use and manage the products. Intstructor classes are an option, but I'd also like to know about any DVD or web based options?
Thanks

Hi,
There are training videos you can download from forums which explain how the CallManagers function and how to configure them. Unfortunately these aren't much use without the practical experience to back it up.
I would definately suggest they do CVoice and CIPT courses to get a good grounding in the technology.
UCCX is a little more complicated as you need a bit of experience in scripts. I would wait until they fully understand UCM's before sending them on a training course for UCCX as most of it will be too much to take in.
Personally, I would recommend the following:
1) Download video tutorials + ebooks for reference
2) set up a lab in VMWare for them to play with
3) train them for CVoice and CIPT
4) send them on a UCCX course
The Cisco website is also extremely helpful if you need any installation, upgrade or troubleshooting documents....
Please rate useful posts....

Training suggestions for RAC course

I would like to take a training course in Oracle Real Application Clusters. I previously took a 10g Admin I course with Oracle University in NYC, and it was okay, but the cost was quite high: $3000 USD for five days. They also offer a RAC course, but this is even more expensive: $3750 for five days!
I'd like to know of any quality alternatives in the United States, especially at a lower cost. I've found a few courses that seem to be good, but they cater to larger groups and on-site training.
Perhaps this isn't the best venue for such a question, but I hope that Oracle will understand someone in my position, looking for quality training at a reasonable cost.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Thanks, all, for your helpful comments.
Trubix seemed promising, but they haven't posted a new course in almost a year.
TUSC also seems promising. They're next scheduled RAC course is in July of this year.
Also found what looks like a good tutorial on RAC via VMware here:
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDB10gR2RACInstallationOnCentos4UsingVMware.php
Please let me know of any others that are as good or better.
I read that Oracle permits only their own courses for "hands-on credit" toward certification, but I'm not sure what that means, as I thought you needed only to pass their test to be certified. Is this true?
Thanks again.

I need the right plug in for my online tech training course--HELP!

I need the right plug in for my online tech training course--it requires Macropedia Flash Player 8 and Internet Exploder 8 (but worked with my Safari ver 5.06). I updated my iMac software and Acrobat application software and now it won't show the study material nor animations.... I have MacOSX ver 10.5.8, 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 1 GB 667 MHz and Acrobat X. How do I get back to what I had previously?!? PS: my Time Machine is not setup so that won't do the trick this time...

Looking for some advice from experienced users regarding training courses

I know I need a good, basic Illustrator training course to do what I want with the software. I found this one and was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to advise if it looks adequate to teach me the basics of Illustrator.
Here is the couse:
http://matygo.com/class/195-adobe-illustrator
Here is the syllabus:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47570858/IllustratorClass2.pdf
Or should I subscribe to the Lynda.com tutorials? http://www.lynda.com/Illustrator-CS5-tutorials/one-on-one-fundamentals/61020-2.html
Is the 30 day course at Vector Diary similar? http://www.vectordiary.com/illustrator/illustrator-training-course/http://
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
Mary

The likely culprit:
The problem is likely due to the discreet GPU failing. Download gfxCardStatus 2.3 and use it to disable the GPU. This is a temporary workaround until you get your motherboard replaced.
Possible other causes are the software that installed these:
com.splashtop.driver.SRXFrameBufferConnector          1.5
com.avatron.AVExFramebuffer          1.7
com.splashtop.driver.SRXDisplayCard          1.5
com.avatron.AVExVideo          1.7
Now they may be causing panics because the try to use acceleration in the GPU which leads to the panics. You are unlucky to have a particular model that has a real problem with this.

Certified training Center for vmware courses

Hi,
I am planning to take a course for vmware vsphere 5.5 to get certified later, is there a site or URL to check if the training center its certified by vmware in order to qualify for the exam after taking the course, its for VCP exam VMware Certified Professional 5 – Data Center Virtualization (VCP5-DCV)
regards and thanks
David P.

Thanks lbourque for your reply,
I found this information for the partner using the instructions you gave me, it has the below solution competencies but does not appear as training center, does this mean if I take the course there I wont be able to take the VCP exam as it does not fill the pre-requsites?
Partner Program: Solution Provider
Solution Competencies: Business Continuity, Cloud IaaS, Infrastructure Virtualization

Is there going to be any more online training courses released soon for BC? Anywhere?

Is there going to be any more online training courses released soon for BC? Anywhere? I'm seriously baffled by the lack of educational meterial out there. ALL of the adobe tutorials are out of date and the subjects are on small fragments of the whole platform. No complete training packages but one out there. I don't mind paying for it but I need a full and complete online training process, experience that isn't all over the place. I can't even find any books that are on the current version of BC.
Why is there a serious lack of traning out there for BC? I just can't figure it out.

Purpose of instructor led training requirement for OCP?

What is the purpose of requiring OCP candidates to take an instructor led course? It all seems a bit random / superfluous. Costly too if one does not have an employer willing to pay for the training.
My Oracle Press "OCA/OCP Oracle Database 11g All-in-One Exam Guide" doesn't even hint that classes are a requirement for the OCP; the most said is: "The OCA qualification is based on two examinations; the OCP qualification requires passing a third examination." (pg. XXIX). An incomplete characterization, correct?
And "To prepare for the OCA/OCP examinations, you can attend Oracle University instructor-led training courses, you can study Oracle University online learning material, or you can read this book." (pg. XXIX). Prepare for the exams, sure. But why would such a book omit the not insignificant detail that a perhaps expensive course is required to get the OCP? Seems discourteous to the reader.
From http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=244#5 via http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=198&p_org_id=&lang=
I say it seems random and superfluous because of the following list:
"These foundation courses meet the Hands On Course Requirement for OCP-Level certification:
* Oracle Database 11g: Introduction to SQL
* Oracle Database 11g: Introduction to SQL Ed 1 LVC
* Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I
* Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals l Ed 1 LVC
* Oracle Database 11g: SQL and PL/SQL Fundamentals
* Oracle Database 11g: SQL and PL/SQL Fundamentals Ed 1 LVC
* Oracle Database 11g: Develop PL/SQL Program Units
* Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I
* Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop I Ed 1.1 LVC
* Oracle Database 11g: Administration Workshop II
* Oracle Database 11g: Data Warehousing Fundamentals"
A modest Intro to SQL course will count? But an OCA will already have that knowledge. Obviously, one should choose a course with higher-level content. But I'm not sure I understand the logic of the OCA-grade courses being eligible. And for those funding certification without financial assistance from an employer, the question that suggests is this: what is the least expensive way to satisfy the "instructor led" course requirement? I cheapest price I see from Oracle is a 3 day class costing $1,800. It would also cost 3 days of vacation time, or unpaid leave, if an employer is not supportive of certification.

Thanks for your thoughtful reply Hans.
TO expose the candidate to techniques related to the new features rather than traditional techniques that are commonplace in the industry.That makes sense to me. But many of us like to tinker with new features on our own.In my experience, many, many more people want the OCP without doing any work. Some will use pure memorization or out and cheating to get there.
It's unfortunate that you and I get penalized by those.
>
And to ensure that the has had at least some hands-on time, instead of only pure theory. While some people may get hands-on at work, many others do not
have that opportunityh, especially in the are of new features.Then it might make sense for OCP certification to allow submission of proof of work experience in place of the HOC, as is the case with other professional certifications.
Yes, that would be nice.
But difficult to verify. and you would be surprised how many organizations have very narrow definitions of the job. Experimenting not allowed in some places.
It all seems a bit random / superfluous. Sad, from an instructors and OCP's point of view, to hear you think of it that way.I don't mean to say there isn't anything new any of us couldn't pick up, say, even from an Intro to SQL course. There's a vastness to most technology topics and we can't master every facet. But the cost/benefit ratio may be terribly low for those who are already Oracle professionals with many years of on the job experience. The reality as well is that some instructors are duds--that's the case anywhere. And for my learning style, I prefer self-guided / on-my-own study.
Costly too if one does not have an employer willing to pay for the training.No doubt.
My Oracle Press "OCA/OCP Oracle Database 11g All-in-One Exam Guide" doesn't even hint that classes are a requirement for the OCP; the most said is: "The
OCA qualification is based on two examinations; the OCP qualification requires passing a third examination." (pg. XXIX). An incomplete characterization, correct?A topic to discuss with the authors, and publisher. We (the user community with whom you are talking) have little to no control over this.Wonder if the authors participate in these forums. I realize you, as a user, have no control over this. But a book blessed by Oracle via Oracle Press, I respectfully submit, can and should do better--by including details about the HOC requirement.
Some do. But much more effetive would be to lodge a formal complaint or inquiry.
"These foundation courses meet the Hands On Course Requirement for OCP-Level certification:
...All of which will ensure you have had time becoming acquainted with SQLPLus, DBControl, and perhaps SQLDeveloper.I already use all 3 tools. Would love to take all the courses listed; but I'm not independently wealthy or otherwise.
So would I. ;-)
As well as logging in (you would be surprised how many OCA candidates do not know how), these all give you an opportunity to issue SQL and PL/SQL
commands. Scary, but seems beside the point. The HOC requirement is one solution to this problem, but it seems like a sub-optimal one. Again, this punishes Oracle professionals already working in the field who'd like to become certified. Why is there no regard for them? One way to correct this, if this is a genuine concern on Oracle's part, is to include a "live" aspect to the exams. Then, if this causes a fail, those who flunk might be interested in taking HOCs to remedy this. In this day and age, I'm certain training could involve interactive SQL*PLUS sessions, etc. Only a failure of imagination and will could prevent I suspect; particularly in a world of virtualization. I'd consider a redesign of exams before I'd require people to pay for classes they may be unable to pay for. It's a bit of an insult to working Oracle professionals who want to add certification.
I agree to some extent. Again, the issue is the consistency in experience. I have met people with 10 years of experience, and others with 10 times 1 year of experience.
A modest Intro to SQL course will count? But an OCA will already have that knowledge. I wish this was consistently true. Then I mispoke. But the HOC still punishes existing Oracle professionals.
I sympathize. I'm an independent, and all exams and certification costs come out of my own (corporate=me) pocket. But life in the professional fast lane is not
cheap. This topic has been the source of some contention for quite some time.
Unfortunately a number of people have been unscrupulous in their method of getting certification - cheating, using gunners, and so on - and I see this as one of
the few ways to combat the issue. If the cheating issue is just left alone, the value of OCP (and any other certification) is effectively lost.The unscrupulous, I'm afraid, will always be with us. This problem is not solved, I'm also afraid, by requiring a costly HOC. It is in my opinion one potential solution of many, and not at all the best one. I wonder how other vendors with certifications handle this. I do know that some industry-generic certifications require proof of X years of work in the field (e.g. GISPs), as well as providing proof of various contributions to the field. This could be gamed as well I suppose. But the honest should not be punished along with the dishonest.Basically I agree with the sentiment. Implementation is the issue.
>
Bottom line: in my view, a few alternate solutions to the HOC are:
1) Allow submission of work credentials to substitute for the HOC
2) Incorporate hands-on aspects to the exam, e.g. a SQL*PLUS simulator.
I'm sure the brilliant minds at Oracle, or a suitable contractor, could easily accomplish #2. And #1 might be a true bar-raiser. It seems highly unlikely to me that, say, requiring an Intro to SQL HOC course raises the bar more than a few millimeters.There have been many discussions around this. Several of us have even considered non-vendor certifications as a route to accomplish this.
It is an imperfect world. But hopefully the steps will correct some of the deficiencies.
I am sure Paul and the rest of the Certification team would be happy to hear more feedback on how to implement practical verifiable real-world experience alternatives to the HOC that do not increase Oracle's costs.
>
Since both are unlikely to happen any time soon, what is the least expensive option for the HOC and where do I find a list of courses and institutions that offer them? In my view, Oracle should provide this information as a courtesy. No reason not to unless there is a revenue motive; and the author of the blog posts you sent me assures us the addition of the HOC is not a revenue enhancement maneuver. I'd be more inclined to believe it if those words were backed-up with helpful actions like the one I've proposed--since such a thing seems not to exist.All courses and course locations are available through http://education.oracle.com (and have been available for years) as well as the price. Oracle's policy does not allow for much price variation for education. The exception is when bulk purchased are negotiated, which is outside what you and I can talk with them about.
