Also, isn't Oracle now REQUIRING you to go to THEIR classes to get your certification?

I would     rate the individual classes as more likely to help you through the OCP, one     test at a time.

    Guys,
    I have been working hard on Oracle systems at various levels - various     platforms, etc. for 8 years. It has been a long time since I have taken a     course. Would like to go to IOUG. Reading e-mails I have made up my mind -     I think it gives me more options to get certified. Problem has been I work     and have 2 small kids. Also, I am a consultant who has been steadily     applied - not a problem but it means I am either working on systems or with     my kids. I am thinking this is a way to save myself the time I don't have     and force the commitment - is it worth it? I know an unfair question but by     taking this and the exams will I indeed completed what it takes to become     certified for 9I?

    As a matter of fact, because our OCP program is so flexible, effective, and     inexpensive,
    it is becoming a fast favorite among Oracle Professionals. Here are just a     few of the
    comments we have received so far...     



    "There was so much information that I needed to know for each exam, but     my Instructor made it a point to explain every area that was expected to     be tested on the exams. Because of the Instructor's insights into the exam     topics, I was able to spend less time in overall studying."     ~Brenda Thomas, PeopleSoft


    "I can't say enough about the personal attention I received by my     Instructor and Mentors at OraKnowledge. They helped me when I needed     better explanations and they provided the motivation to stay on track"     ~William Jennings, Ernst Young Consulting
