I guess that choice shouldn't be made upon MY opinion, but YOURS. What do you find interesting? What would you want to do? It might be opposite from what I think. So, why would you make your life miserable, just because I told you so?

If I had the choice, I guess that I'd first take the second option (Entering a Software Engineering Institute (9 months)) and then, hopefully, Get a job as Oracle Developer.

I totally agree with Littlefoot that this should be your decision, especially since the two are not really related. The job is Oracle specific, whereas the training looks to go into a different direction. So it all depends on what you want to do in 5 years from now.

If you actually CAN get a job as an Oracle developer and you want to be an Oracle developer, you will be learning all you need on the job.

Hello..

First , I am not a computer science graduate as I said before ..

* If I go into the job (oracle developer)..
Early, I will gain more experience, money and respect...

* If I go into the institute .. after the studying , I will start from scratch to gain that features (experience,money and respect ..) and I will lost the job (oracle developer) and may be go to another field after finishing the study because the graduates of the institute will be :-

In Java Department : will be Java Developer

Or

In Oracle Department : will be :-
* ERP Implementer-Analyst
* Or, Database Administrator
* Or, Application Server Administrator
* Or, Oracle Apps DBA
* Or, Data Warehousing Specialist
...

Or

Other Departments ..


But,it will open more jobs ,solid knowledge, more information of the latest technology ...

I think you have gotten all the sane advice there is.
