Did you check out the prices for the OCM? Two classes plus $2,000 for
the exam the last time I looked into it. Can I take an upgrade exam to
upgrade my OCM-7?

Speaking of OCP...I got this from the OCP newsletter...I guess Oracle
needs
more revenue streams...
Dear Oracle Certified Professional,
Please acknowledge this correspondance as an official notification in
regards to your pursuit of Oracle Certification.
The Oracle Certification credential continues to provide leverage to
those
who have earned it, leading to increased demand for Oracle Certified
Professionals among hiring managers. To help meet this demand and
increase
the value of the credential, Oracle is investing heavily in the
betterment
of certification exams and learning offerings. Oracle customers and
business
partners demand that their Oracle Certified Professionals have
hands-on
experience with all aspects of the Oracle database. To meet our
commitment
to customers and constituents, three distinct changes are being rolled
out
with the goal of increasing the level of quality of our certification
skill
and ability benchmarks:
Scenario-based testing in all new Oracle Certified Professional track
exams
(as of January, 2002)
Instructor-led class requirement for all Oracle9i DBA Certified
Professionals (as of June 15, 2002)
A new hands-on Masters Practicum (available October, 2002)
The OCP Oracle9i DBA track requires four tests: two required tests for
OCA
certification plus two additional tests. Oracle now also requires (as
of
June 15, 2002) that all newly starting OCP credential candidates
complete
one hands-on course with Oracle University in preparation for their
exams
and future role as an Oracle technologist.
Because you are already an Oracle Certified Professional, you are not
required to complete any course requirements to upgrade your credential
to
Oracle9i status. You will simply be required to take the appropriate
OCP DBA
upgrade exam(s).
The Masters Practicum exam will be launched during October 2002 at
regional
centers around the globe. This credential will prove to the market that
each
Oracle Certified Master has demonstrated the ability to be successful
on the
job. To learn more about this credential, view our website's section
specific to the OCM program. The program requires that candidates first
earn
their OCP for Oracle9i, and then complete two advanced courses from
Oracle
University. The website includes a list of courses that can be applied
to
meet the requirement. After fulfilling the course requirement,
candidates
can schedule an appointment for their practicum exam. The exam is a
two-day
event at a regional Oracle University center involving hands-on,
job-performance-based testing using Oracle9i Database technologies.
For more information, visit www.oracle.com/education/certification, or
phone
your local Oracle University representative. A complete listing of
local
Oracle University representative phone numbers can be at
www.oracle.com/education/index.html?contact.html.
Thank you for your understanding of Oracle's commitment to excellence
and
continued quality for the Oracle Certification Program.
Regards,
Oracle Certification
